Mary and Family, Regardless of age, health, or any other circumstance in life we are never ready to give up our loved ones. I knew Bill, Guy, and one of your older brothers but did not know this sister. You were blessed with a big family. The only comfort at this time in our lives comes from a real Faith in the Sovereignty of God and the manifested concern of caring firends. We are thinking of you at this time!
