Dear Steve ... My heartfelt condolences to you and your family. I will always remember your mom's vibrant smile and sunny disposition whenever you and Ronda were out and about in her company. Her services were beautiful. God bless you all.

Steve,
May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Retta will be missed tremendously but never forgotten. I met Retta when I first started working in 79, she always had a wonderful smile and a nice word to say.
