  1. Barbara and family,

    I know what a tough road you and Slim had since you decided to take care of him at home. I had thought about you the other day as I drove by Beverly Health Care.

    I will always remember the jokes that Slim would crack as we looked for your home. He was a very interesting guy to be around, but then, you knew that, right?

    I hope that you will remember the good times and let go of these past few years that you two shared. I am so glad to see that you do have some family here now.

    I can’t make the services tomorrow, but you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

    Take care,

    Sonya

  2. Our thoughts and prayers are with
    Barb and her family at this time of
    deep sorrow.

  3. So sorry to hear of your loss. May the Lord be with yuo at this time and ease your pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Much love, Bobbi
