To Billie, Kim, Charles, Nicki and Family:

We are saddened to know of your loss. Mrs. G (Happy) was a great lady. We are reminded of Bill (her son). They were so alike with their warmth, kindness, and generosity. May beautiful memories sustain you and may you continue to be blessed with goodness, mercy, and love from on high.
