I'm filled with profound sadness at the loss of one of my favorite sisters in law!! It's almost the same I had at the loss of her sister, my beloved Nancy my wife, and her sister!! They're now reunited along with her brother Jackie, and her baby daughter Laurie, whom God took home when she was just a little baby!! Now Virginia is in God's loving arms!! I had no way to go to the funeral or tell her goodbye because we had no transportation!! I love you sis and will see you before too long...

Karen and I would like to express our profound sadness at the loss of your Mother and Grandmother. Although we probably only met her once or twice, we have enjoyed every moment that we have spent with her offspring. That means you. May GOD comfort you during your time of grief. We both love all of you very much.
