Pam and Rick,

Kim, so sorry to hear if your Mother's passing. Prayers for you and your family during your time of grief.

Cindy, or Nana to me (as I was introduced to her by my dear friend Kaitlyn), was one of the most pure souls I’ve ever met. She was entirely selfless and devoted to her children/grandchildren. She always had the best advice for Kaitlyn, and anyone else who asked her for it. Cindy was an absolute joy to be around, always making everyone smile. She was well known by all of Kaitlyn’s friends, who also called her “Nana”. What a sweet, beautiful soul she was. I will forever cherish being able to...

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Cindy spread joy wherever she was.

Please accept my condolencesDoug Cameron..”Ralf”

Sorry to hear about the passing of your wife, Art. My condolences to you and all of your family.
