Frank, just wanted you to know I'm thinking about you. I have fond memories of both your parents. They were always welcoming and fun to be around when we were teens. Take care.

Sorry to read of our old friend's death. She and her husband were friends of mine for many years.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Marie's family in this time. She was a faithful and determined lady and now finds her home where there is no more sorrow, no more tears, no more sickness, and where God dwells with His people. As Paul says, "absent from the body, present with the Lord." We thank God for her faithful life.
