Danny, Billy and families,
I am so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I remember her as such a sweet lady and a good neighbor. It has been a long time since I saw any of you all, but I still remember growing up and going to school with you boys. Take care and keep the memory of your Mom alive, knowing in your heart that she is in a much better place with the Lord.

To Uncle Danny and Aunt Linda and Uncle Bill and Aunt Shelia - I wanted to let you all know how very sorry I am to hear of Grandma's passing.

John 11: 25-26: Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

I believe..
I know Grandma was a person who knew Christ..

Grandma - I will see you in Heaven. Rejoice in your reunion with God.
