REST SAFELY IN HIS CARE:
There are many things in life
That we cannot understand,
But we must trust God's judgment
And be guided by His hand,
And all who have God's blessing
Can rest safely in His care,
For He promises safe passage
On the wings of faith and prayer.

Fran, Earl, Penny and Family,

My heart was sudden to read in the paper the passing of Mrs. Pullen but I know that she is happy to be together again with Mr. Pullen. You all know how special she has always been to me and my family, she will be missed. If there is anything that we can do for you, please do not hesitate letting us know.

As "the first Grandbaby", I can't begin to express my very special relationship with my Grandmother or how much I love and will miss her. I will however share my favorite childhood memory. A sleep-over at Grams meant a bath in her deep tub with Ivory soap, a dusting of Estee Lauder powder, a fancy slip for a nightgown and then trying on costume jewelry with all the hugs and giggles that you could stand. This ritual was followed by bedtime prayers said side by side on our knees. I have never felt so loved. Much love to my family during this difficult time.
