To the Coppinger Family~



My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. Many years have gone by since I was a neighbor on Neeley Rd.

I have fond memories of all of you.

We shared both sad and happy times.

The greatest joy was watching our children grow. Prayer is a great healer, and you will be remembered in mine. To Kay, please always remember you are one of my dearest friends. You are so strong and your love is honest and enduring.



I wish you all comfort in knowing love conquers all~

Joe was a great person to work with at AAA, and a pleasure have as my daughter's father-in-law. We will miss you so much, but we know you will always be smiling down on us. Those thirty-one years went fast! Love to Kay and family.
