Dear Robin, Travis, Marianne and Bill,
Don and I are almost speechless. We just read about this online. I am working in Kansas/Missouri for FEMA. I have been gone for awhile and Don is with me. We are so sorry. I wish we were there. I can't even imagine what you are going through. The only thing that we can do is pray for comfort and peace for your family, help with the expenses and just let you know that we are here and to let you know that our thoughts are with you and your family. Again, Im so sorry for your loss. When I get home, I will get in touch. Love you. Don and Sherry Cobb

I am thankful to have met you while completing my internship and student teaching. I enjoyed getting to know you through our talks and interactions. Your smile is forever imbedded on my heart. I know that you were a great sister to Travis and a wonderful daughter to your parents. I am blessed to have known you.
