Reves, Sandra, and Lisa,

Lisa, you know you are my special friend and my heart goes out to you, Sandra, Reves and the girls (Baily & Lilly too). Your dad was such a wonderful man and I enjoyed each of my visits to his & Reves home. I remember the first time I saw him. It was when you moved in your house by me and I was curious, so went out in the yard and there was your dad. We started talking and I knew that God had sent me a wonderful family for a neighbor and friend. That relationship is still strong and I am so thankful. Rely on God to help you get through this time of grief and hold tightly to the memories. At a time such as this we realize life is fragile and makes us treasure it even more. Always know that I am here for you. Love You, Mary
