Bob, Brenda, Missy, and Jason,
Please accept my deepest sympathy, for the loss of your beloved, Vavoa. May she rest in peace, in the arms of our Lord. We had some wonderful talks, in the few times that I was in her company. She will never be forgotton, 'never'. Take solace, in knowing, that we will all see, her again, when our time comes, and that will be my pleasure. God, Bless you all, in this trying time.
Love, and my prayers, go out to all of you
