Dear Tom and family,
Our prayer is that God will hold each of you in his all powerful and comforting hand during this time of heartbreak and sadness. I am trying to overcome an infection from having had double by-pass surgery, consequently Mary and I are unable to attend on Saturday.

Tom,
I was saddened to hear of Lillie's death and regret I will not be able to come to Savoy for her burial. We want you to know you will be in the thoughts of your Oklahoma cousins during this difficult time.
