Eunice was an exceptional lady, and she had lots of spunk! She was so supportive of my mom, Doris Goodwin when mom lived in Phoenix. They went on many Sages trips together. After my mom passed away, she and I would talk occasionally. Murray, she loved coming to CO to see you and go to the Rockies games!!

So sorry for the family's loss. It's times like these when the loving promises of our heavenly Father can bring us comfort and can soften some of the pain we feel in our hearts. (1 Thessalonians 4:13,14) May God grant you guidance, strength and peace during your time of sorrow.
