Clara, I am so very sorry to learn about Preston's recent passing. Seems like just a couple of months ago that I enjoyed a long conversation with him one morning as I walked pass the house & he was outside. Preston was a really nice and kind man as well good neighbor and will be missed. May he rest in God's sweet embrace. Praying that you and the family will be comforted by God's love, guidance and eventual peace as you journey through your time of grief and sorrow.
Prayerfully yours,

To the Washington family,
You all have my deepest sympathy at the loss of your loved one. I had the privilege of speaking with him and his wife in Sears a few months ago. He was very upbeat as usual. We all talked about growing up in Old Algiers. I know that he will surely be missed. I will continue to pray with you and for you.
