David and Susan
No need to tell you how much your mother will be missed, because you know that. She was one of my mothers and dad's best friends and loved us kids too, you could always count on her to keep in touch and care for you. Between you Dad and Mother my parents had many fine hours and they will not be forgotton by us. I am sorry that I was not able to attend and say this to you in person, but I was unable to attend or go out tonight, I couldn't even make it to church either.
