Shirley,

Please accept my condolences on your loss. I have so many fond memories of you and your family and fun times spent at your farm. I know this is a difficult time for you and will be praying for you to have the courage to go on. It has been 6 years since we lost Mom and Dad and I still miss them every day. But, at least now I can smile and laugh about memories of them. It took a while, but when it first happened I tought the pain would never stop. I pray that God finds a way to ease your pain.



Please say 'hello' to Deb and Rick. Take care and I'm sorry I didn't get to attend the ceremony as I didn't find out about your loss until yesterday. God Bless you and your family. Susie Orth
