Dear The Taylor Family,

I am new in your hearts, but my love for Taylor, Danielle, Austin and your family is very profound. My deepest love and sympathy goes out to you during this difficult time and I hope you will accept my offer to help through the storm.

Danny was a wonderful man, and I can tell by the love I felt with his family tonight, and from the memories I've shared of him with others, that he loved his family as well, and he will always be with you.

Until We See Eachother Again.


Love,
Jakki C. Witherspoon
