My deepest sympathy to the McGlennen family. God understands the comfort that we need when we lose a loved one. May you confide in Him always because His understanding is beyond measure. (Psalm 147:5)

I will miss the presence of a dear friend and neighbor of many years. Her smile and love of flowers drew us together for conversation in the front yard of our homes. Years ago she prompted friends to come together in a group called Prayer Grams. Thankful for her example of a loving grandmother.
