Madelyn, Araby, Brent,& Mark
Carol & I wish to extend to all of you our deepest sympathy on Zane's passing. He was more than just a cousin, he was more like a brother. I can remember growing up playing whiffle ball with Zane, Mark & Bill out in Aunt Nancy & Uncle Chub's yard, and it was always the Pirates vs Orioles. Sure was a lot of fun. Hold on to your memories of Zane, and this will help get you through this difficult time. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. I know Zane is now happy in heaven and I am sure that Aunt Nancy & Uncle Chub were there to greet him upon his arrival. Take care & God bless all of you.
Love always, Bob & Carol Arnfield
