Billy, Sandy & Mike,



We are so very sorry for your loss. You know your parents were just like my parents also. There are not enough words to say how much your mother was loved. It seemed she always had time for the tapioca pudding i liked of hers. If i can ever do anything for you please let me know.



All Our Love,

Kathy & Ruby Adams
