To the Martin Family



My heart was deeply sadden when I read that my dear friend Mary had passed. I know that your hearts are deeply sadden also. Mary has been by my side when I lost love ones, and she will be a special friend in my heart forever. I look forward to visiting you this summer in late July. You all too will have a special place in my heart. Even though you are sadden, just remember that God does not make a mistake.



Much Love,



Mildred Forbes
