To the family of Lucille Osborn, I wish to extend my heartfelt condolences to you all. I met her husband and he was very genuine and warm. Sir, I'm sorry for your loss. I knew Lucy and her brothers from 19th and Carolina. I grew up next door to their cousins. Down through the years I would run into Lucy and she would always have that engaging smile and would inquire about family members. To Jerome and Allan, and other siblings, hang onto memories of the good times; it will sustain you during these difficult days. To the Osborn family, your memories of the years Lucy had with you will bring smiles amidst the tears. To you all, God has promised comfort in our time of loss and He promised to be with us always. He has also given to all who believe in Him the Hope of being reunited with our loved ones one day. Until then, have faith in Him and trust that He is with you now. Praying for you all.
