Sad for your loss. Anne was always good to me. Being so far from my family in Arkansas, she always made me feel at home there. I pray God’s peace with you during your time of grief.

God Bless you and the family. I played with your boys as a young child. My cousin Jim lived just down the hill on Morgan’s Hill, and we spent many hours together.
