My husband, Rolly, and I extend our most sincere sympathy. I remember your mother as a very sweet lady whose priority was the welfare of her family. Cecilia attended my Nursery School and was a delight. Please know that your family is being lifted in prayer for the comfort that the Lord, alone, can give.
Sincerely, Adorel Randall
