Tom, I am so sorry for your loss. I know you will miss your beloved Sandy. She was one of the sweetest ladies I know. Life throws many curves our way and we can only pray to the Lord for peace and comfort as we grieve. I will be up that way in the coming weeks and hope to see you then.

Sincerely,
Dinky
