Not sure what to say?

Think of you often. It's hard to believe you've been gone this long. Love you Coop.

Jane and family,
I learned just yesterday of Marc's death. May you find peace in knowing that Marc was so well respected and loved by everyone and that family and friends will continue to offer comfort and support in the months ahead.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Cooper family.

Jane -- All of the Memphis Lathams are thinking of you and the Coopers. "Uncle Swayne" especially sends his love.
