Dear Anita: I remember you and Don for your hard work at the Pres. Church of St. John. I pray that God will give you strength and peace that only He can give. I know that it's hard to lose someone that you love (and have loved for so many years, through the good and difficult times). I lost my mom last year after a 6-year battle with lymphoma. I miss her. You will miss Don but I hope that knowing that he is with the Savior forever will give you strength.
We are Texans too now. Moved to Houston in '98 and love it.
Sincerely, Mary Idiaquez
