Dear Debbie & family,
John & I are very saddened over the loss of your mother and grandmother. We are praying that our Lord will wrap all of you in His loving arms, give you peace, uplift you, and fill you with his healing presence, as only He can. Sorry we are not able to give your our condolences in person, but we are leaving about noon on Wednesday to go to Columbus for Easter. Hallelujah! HE IS RISEN! This is the truth we cling to during these difficult times. Our prayers remain with you.

Debbie, Kay, Carol, Corky, Barb, Lynn and Nancy...

Just wanted to send you my sympathy upon the loss of Mrs. McAtee.

Those of us who "grew up" at Devil's Lake, have so many fond memories, particularly of the very, very nice people who owned cottages and who opened their doors to all of us as kids and made us feel welcome and loved.

On behalf of my Mother, Minnie Powers Allison, who is now 98 years old, please know we are thinking of you at this time.

Sincerely,
Evelyn Powers,
Bloomington, Indiana
