It seems like a long time since you have been gone. I'm reminded of the Kenny Rogers song about Lucile. I miss you everyday and I love you more than words can say. I'm grateful for the love, kindness and goodness you showed me, you were and will always be a Blessing in my life.

Dianne and Family,
I know the pain you feel at this time, and the close relationship you had with your Mom. I'm so glad I got to meet her that week she share with you.She could tell it like it was better than Roger. I know a Mother's love is special, and believe me you had one of a kind too be proud of all the time you spent together, and many more too come. God Bless you and keep you. Let his light shine on you and and give you peace.

Dear Diann and family,
So very sorry to hear of your loss; she was a beautiful lady.
I have always found one verse of scripture comforting to me.
We pray it will comfort you also.
Rom. 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours always.
Love in Christ

Mr Hale and family,
Wayne and I want to express our deepest sympathies to you in the homegoing of Mrs Hale. I want you to know that it was our highest honor to spend Saturdays with you both for the past 6 months. That was precious time that I will always cherish. While I know that you will miss her, please take comfort in knowing that she is walking (if not running) on her own legs in the presence of our Lord. She no longer is in need of a wheelchair to get around. Psalms 116:15
