Sue and Family,
I sit here in shock reading about Bruce's passing and am a loss for words. You and him have always been good friends and neighbors and I cannot believe he is gone. I honestly don't know what to say. If there were words that could heal your heart I would speak them and if there was a song that could fill the emptiness I would sing it so I will put my trust in God to heal your heart and to fill the emptiness you are feeling. May he bring your family comfort and may he light the way on this path you walk now. You both offered so much help to Danny and I and if there is one little thing I can do in return please do not hesitate to ask. With much sympothy and many prayers...
Carlene Betz and Family
