I'd like to share my condolences with the entire Dudley Family. I'm grateful to God for Mrs. Dudley's faithful witness. In working with her son, Brad, I glimpse each day the power of her remarkable life and the virtues she helped to nurture and inspire in him and so many others. My prayers are with you all.
