To: Becky, Kyle, and Sarah

I want to express my condolence at the passing of your Mother,Mother-in law and Grandmother. I am sure she was also known as wife, aunt. niece, neighbor and good friend daughter.

The last few years have been difficult. I would bet she has suffered much frustration with her health. Now she is free from those frustrations and will ever be.

she has endured to the end and has seen her Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ and welcomed to paradise by all her loved ones beyond veil and those who knew her in this earth life.

Lela and i share Grandchildren. Her granddaughter is a mother to five of my grandchildren and my youngest sons wife. you have given have given me the best you had to give. all I can say is thank you for all your good works
