"Joey", I was sorry to hear about Mitzie. I remember us kids growing up on Chestnut Avenue and playing together in the back yards. My thoughts and sympathy to your Mom, "Chief Statum" and the rest of your family.

My prayers remain with the family as I know that Mitzie no longer needs them since she is now with her heavenly Father. The spiritual faith of this family has sustained you in this difficult time and I pray that this faith will continue to strengthen you.

I only have sweet memories of Mitzie. You couldn't find a more pure hearted, loving person than she was. Though we had not seen each other in a long time I loved her and I know she loved me. Heaven must be rejoicing at her homecoming and it won't be long until we are all there with her. Joe, Alma, Joey and family, I love all of you and am lifting you in prayer every day.
