My deepest sympathy for the loss of your sister, Jeff. My thoughts are with you and hopes that you find peace and comfort needed in the coming days, weeks and years without her here.
Thank you Jackie!
I am truly sorry for your loss Uncle Brian. I love you all so much and am truly sorry that I could not attend. As there were so many out on vacation or with covid st the moment, I couldn’t leave. I pray for your peace and understanding during this difficult time. I love you!
