Hixson Family~ We are so sorry to hear about Pete. Our thoughts are with you and your families.

Dear Hixson Family,

I have so many wonderful memories of Heidelberg, and of the times the Cox and Hixson families spent together. I hope you know how much we all love you (my mom and dad count Anne and Pete Hixson as some of the very best friends they ever had). My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our prayers are with you . May your memories of the joy you two hafe shared over the years comfort you and you feel God's love sustaining youin this time.
