Carolyn, Amanda, Emily and Molly,



I am so sorry to hear about your Mom, Grandma. The last time I saw her was at your house for Amanda's graduation. She always had a smile even with all her problems. I know she was a real force in all your lives. Now she is home with your Dad. My goodness, now the heavens are rolling and those two angels are watching over all of us. I hope you find comfort in that and please know Iam praying for all of you.



Love and prayers,

Mrs. B--judy blackford
