    Dear Ginny and family,
    Our sincere sympathy in the loss of your mother. She was always so kind and loving to people at First Baptist. May happy memories flood your thoughts during these difficult days. So sorry to miss the memorial service but we will be out of town caring for my ninety-four year old father. Prayers for your comfort and strength.
