I have so many memories of you and Polly. Since I was a little girl you both were so good to me and I knew if I wanted to eat good I would go to your house. Best food ever. So many funny memories when both of you would be acting silly. I have never tasted such good tortillas and bean plus any thing else that you guys cooked. Fred and I loved going to visit you both and always were treated good. Mena it took years to figure out why we were so wired up until one day when I saw you make your coffee. Now every time I make mine I remember you. You would put like enough coffee grains for 50 cups but the pot was for 12. Will love you guys forever!

Mis condolencias para la familia en estos tristes momentos por los que están pasando.
Revelación 21:3,4: "Con eso, oí una voz fuerte desde el trono decir: Mira! La tienda de Dios está con la humanidad, y él residirá con ellos, y ellos serán sus pueblos. Y Dios mismo estará con ellos. 4 Y limpiará toda lágrima de sus ojos, y la muerte no será más, ni existirá ya más lamento ni clamor ni dolor.Las cosas anteriores han pasado.
