To Joseph,Elnora,and Michelle,
I was sorry to hear of Cousin Vi/Aunt Vi's death. However, I believe that she planned for this homegoing years ago and, hope that this thought provides great comfort for you. I had the opportunity to meet your mom about 32 years ago because she was a relative to my husband. I soon learned that she and Joseph were also related to me(because of the Butlers). I have good memories of her. Praying for all of you and other family members.
Love you,
