Mr. Roger and family. I was grieved to hear the news of Mrs. June's passing.I call my mom everyday. I didn't expect to hear this news. I know when I come home,there will be a feeling of loss when I don't see her sitting out on the porch. I've always felt that it was apart of my coming home to sit outside early mornings or late nights and talk with her. I say be encouraged,God is with you all. I have lifted you to God in my prayers that He will comfort your hearts.
