Al, Mike and Sueellen,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. May the Lord comfort and bless you in your time of mourning. "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted" Matthew 5:4. Thanks for letting me be a part of your family while we were in HS. Your mother was truly a wonderful person.
God Bless,
Roger

It is really hard to find the right words to say, so I'll try to speak from the heart: Sandy was always VERY nice to me. I feel like I was treated like family every time I visited the Smith household. I don't ever even remember her raising her voice, and I'm sure there are times when maybe she should have...Mike you have been a part of my life since we were kids. Anytime, anywhere you need anything, I will be there for you. Take care and today I hope we are celebrating Sandy's life and not her death. She will be missed.

Mike & Suellen,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. May the grace of our Lord be with you. I never met your mother but judging by the two of you I can imagine she was a wonderful person. God Bless you both.
