Prather & Rodriguez Family,
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your beautiful Kay. Although it has been many years, I have such fond, wonderful memories of her. She was truly one of a kind and no doubt touched the heart of all whose path she crossed.
May you find peace and serenity within yourselves by knowing she is once again healthy, happy, and at rest.
