Timmy and I want to tell each of you how sorry we are to hear about your Mom (Grandmother). She was a very special lady!! I'm sure you will all miss her very much but I know you each have great memories of her that will last forever. We were planning to come to family night to be with you all but Timmy is very sick with flu or cold so we will not be able to make it. I stopped by the funeral home this morning. Know that our love and prayers are with you all.
