Dear Paul, Kathy and Chip,

Our prayers are with you. We are so sorry for your loss. Kit was a special person who loved God and her family deeply. I thank God that she is finally at peace and has the promise of His wonderful kingdom where I believe she was met by David, Mom and Casey, early this afternoon.

God bless all of you for being there for Kit, with your love, support and care. You are very special people. God love and bless all of you.

Love and Blessings,

Diane and Jerry
