I was going through old emails today and stumbled across some from you...emails about needing the grandkid's "wish list" for Christmas & what to bring for Thanksgiving dinner...etc. Made me sad. Miss you pretty lady. But, I know your legacy and spirit lives on in the hearts of all those that loved you and in every ray of sunshine or soft wind that touches my face. I love you! Gone but not forgotten.

You have my deepest sympathy on your immeasurable loss. Life is so short and those we love are gone from our lives too quickly. God's promise to empty the grave in the near future is found at Hosea 13:14. May the God of loyal love comfort you during your time of sorrow.

God bless Ranelle. She was my son, Corey's speech teacher at Bullitt Lick Middle School. She treated him with so much respect and in return Corey loved her. She was a good friend and a lovely lady.
