Dear Walt and family; We are so very sorry for your loss. Betty was a very special lady and she will be deeply missed. We loved working with her and being able to get to know her and the family. You and Betty have many friends here and we will look forward to your continued visits.

Dear Walter and Wendy,
I am in Cincinnati or I would be there in person. My heart goes out to you both.
I remember how much Betty and Wendy loved to feed the grain to Black Angus Bull from the bucket. Walt you and i had a great laugh over that.
Kath and I send our prayers with you all.

It is with great sadness in my heart that I extend my deepest sympathy to the Sestill Family:

I know that you are surrounded by enormous love from your family and friends, PS 145:15 says, "He is giving support to all who are falling and is raising up all who are bowed down.". Therefore, I encourage you to take encouragement in prayer and take comfort in knowing that God is there for you and cares for you.

Sincerely, DEE

Walt, Wendy and family, so sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful friend and co-worker. Love Jill Wimer
