So, So, saddened by Delena's passing. I will miss her stories of fishing and camping adventures. She will always hold a special place in my heart. She was truly a special woman and such a class act. My sincerest condolences to the family and to Elsie.

Sincere condolences to the family. When someone you love dies, the memory of them becomes a treasure in your heart. Hosea 13:14 gives us encouragement that one day those memories will be treasured in a special way. LH
