Not sure what to say?

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. I am so sorry that I was not able to be there. I was babysitting my grandson. I love y’all and she will be missed so much!

Doris was such a sweet lady. Her pastor married Gay and myself in 1964 and she and Bill were our first neighbors. She left a beautiful legacy in her family. May God comfort and strengthen you all during this time of grief.
