To fred Cross and family, I was told about Kenyas' passing on 7/23/13-I would have attended her funeral if I knew about it, my deepest sympathy is extended to you and your family. I am sorry to hear that your wife Alice had passed as well-both of them were clients and I am so sorry that I didn't get to attend their funerals. May God bless you and keep you..Love Mrs.Cheryl Frizzelle
