I was so very glad to see Uncle Cork when I was back in Candor for grandma Marshall's funeral. I know that at that point he and the family had been through so much, and yet all of them including Uncle Cork managed to smile.

Please continue to hug each other as often as you can and know that you are in our thoughts, our hearts and our prayers.

2 Corinthians 1:3, 4:
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those in any sort of tribulation through the comfort with which we ourselves are being comforted by God. "

Am so sorry I won't be at the funeral but my thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad sad time; I will always have fond memories of us all enjoying fun times at the "ranch". Such a special place; Uncle Cork will be deeply missed by all who knew him. He's at peace now; Aunt Dot and cousins, love you all and my deepest sympathy goes out to you - with all my love,
