Dear Arthur Jr. & Family,
Your mother was a very special woman and will be missed by everyone who knew her especially me. She fought her illness with courage and dignity...and she has found peace. I'm deeply sorry beyond words for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. "Whoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
