Dear Mr. Orr, Lynn, Beth, Joanne and families:
Your wife and mother was such a wonderful woman and so much a special part of my childhood ... and she continued to lovingly keep in touch throughout the years. Our hearts ache with you at this time and we send our sympathy. Thankfully, we have the wonderful hope of the resurrection and a time to be reunited in heaven. May God bless and comfort you.
Love,
Paul and Gloria (Mazur) Rowley
