Ginger:

I think I incorrectly sent a message to you that went somewhere into the message-eating ether!

Nonetheless, Sharon and I are deeply saddened to read of your delightful Mother's demise. Truly a wonderful lady (as lovely as your Father was courageous!) The proof of their greatness is evidenced by the beauties of their offspring.

Love,

Sharon and Doug Morrisey

To be absent from the body we as Christians know and understand that we are present with The Lord. As you make ready the celebration of Mrs. Napue's wonderful life our family is embracing each member with prayer. The family chain has been broken, however, it will be knitted back together. May the days to come be filled with much love & peace,even thru this season of grief as God truly blessed her with a long beautiful life. Her memories will forever live.
