Richard,
Please accept our belated, yet heartfelt condolences. I just yesterday heard about Priscilla's passing while at a meeting in Jacksonville. It has been quite a while since we have been in contact with you at all & I cannot find the words to truly express my thoughts of sympathy for your most profound loss. Know that our thoughts and prayers will be with you during this difficult time. But like all of those you and Priscilla have touched over the years, know that Missy and I are here if you should need anything, or if we can be of service in any way!
With all Gods Blessings,
Larry & Marcia "Missy" Miller
