Bob and I send our heartfelt sympathies to the family of Mary Lou. Bob was also a high school classmate of Mary Lou's, and little did we know that she was also a spiritual sister of us both. She's in Jehovah God's memory now and we pray that he will comfort all of you left behind, with his promise of a resurrection and a day when death and sorrow will be a thing of the past. We certainly hope to be among those who will welcome Mary Lou back!

Warmly,
Libby and Bob Back
