Jeff, Leah and Travis,
We are so sorry for your loss. Missy was a wonderful friend and neighbor who will be sadly missed. It has been a real pleasure knowing Missy the last 20 years. Wish it could be 20 more years. May you all find the strength to get through this terrible loss. R.I.P Missy

My deepest sympathy and condolences to family and friends. At the end of each life is a legacy of love. As the days and weeks pass and as you return to the routines of life, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends. As James 4:8 encourages us to “draw close to God and he will draw close to you.”
