Please know that we have lifted your family up in prayers as you celebrate the life of your dear Mother, Margaret and my Aunt this past week. So sorry that we were unable to attend the calling hours and funeral, but I was in Grand Rapids for two days for a Regional Garden Club Convention.

We are certainly thinking of you and sending you are deepest sympathy in your loss. May God give you comfort at this difficult time in your lives.
