Renny, Marco, Xavier and the entire Crawley family:

My daughter shared the news with me of Mrs. Crawley's passing. My heart is truly saddened, as she was a beautiful person inside and out. I felt like family when around her.

May the memories of her remain with you forever.

I wish to express my condolences to you, Alice and William and the family. Those whom we love are gone from us all to soon. Knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many will bring a measure of comfort to your hearts. Jehovah has promised that he will get rid of death forever and bring our loved ones back to life. May the God of loyal love strengthen and comfort you during your time of great sorrow.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Mrs. Crawley's family. It is amazing to me how you may never of heard a persons voice much less had a conversation with them but still grow to care so much for them. Mrs. Crawley and her daughter Alice Mason will stay in my heart forever.
