    Harold, Rachel and family: just read in the paper about the loss of your daughter. I am so sorry for your loss and our prayers and thoughts are with you at this time. May God give you comfort and strength to get through this trying time. In case you don’t remember me I worked in several of the offices at mmc the last 13 being in personnel. I went into personnel when Sparky retired. Jim my husband was manager in spinning. Just wanted you to know we were thinking of you.

    I am so sorry to read about Elizabeths' passing. I remember her as a sweet little girl when your family lived in Marion.
    I hope you will remember our family.Todd is Elizabeths' age and Derek is Davids' age.David and Derek were good friends in elementary school.
    I pray there will be brighter days ahead.
