My thoughts and Prayers are with you today, as I just
read of your mother’s passing in today’s paper. You were
so upset the day I talked with you into Kwik Star, my heart
went out to you. I wanted to give you a big hug and wished
there was something I could do to console you. She will be
missed. May good memories and Good friends carry you
through.

Suzanne,
I was so sorry to hear about your Mom. She has always been one of my favorite Aunts. I will always remember her zest for life and her sense of humor. God’s blessings to you as you go through this difficult time. I’m sure that she is reunited with your Dad and she is at peace.

Dear Suzanne, I am thinking of you today as you say good-bye to your Mom. We were good friends many years ago but when we would see each other periodically it seemed we always had a good visit. She was a very loving. giving person. Keep all these good memories and take one day at a time. Stay busy and keep in contact with friends and your church family. In Jesus’ Love, Vi
