Danny, Missy, I am so very sorry about Becky. I wish there was something I could do or say to help each one in this time of sorrow. I have often thought of everyone, wondering how everyone was doing. Last Sunday I was going through my address book, I started to call Becky, but I didn't, I had planned to call Becky and chat with her one day. When I read of her passing I was in shock, after the thoughts that I had of everyone on Sunday. This has proved again "Never put off until tomorrow, what needs to be done today". I had planned on going to her funeral, but I had a emergency happen to David. Believe in God he will never leave your side, Every one is in my prayers and thoughts. If there is anything I could do for anyone Please let me know. Number one favorite cousin Danny, God Bless you. One day soon we will be with our loved one's again.
