Sally, As always you are in my prayers, but especially for God's grace and love to strengthen you during this time. We love you, and I still think of her everyday- We've not forgotten. Peace be with you now.
I.m so sorry to hear of Charlie's passing. What a great guy! I can't say enough about him. I really loved him as a person of wit and artistic ability. What a carver he was. His name will live on in his many carved masterpieces. I guess Heaven couldn't wait any longer for this truly unique, wonderful, family loving man. He will be greatly missed here but boy what a time they are having up stairs now! I'm sorry I couldn't make it to the visitation or the funeral as they were during the week days. I'll be praying for everyone and please except my heart felt condolences. With much love, Rick
I will keep you all in my prayers. May God look over you and keep you safe. Sandra (Great grand daughter of Thomas M. Wann)
