Dear Karen,
So sorry about your Dads' passing. I hope you are all doing as well as can be. I am working away from home, so could not come to Hall's, but I wanted to send a note. I remember your parents fondly and the good times we had. Don't rush to get back to your routine-be extra good to yourself right now.
Love, Lucy Russell Johnson

My heart goes out to all you for your loss. When Matt and I began to spend more time together around your home and even more as the years went by, their relationship was one that I envied very much. I always enjoyed his company and conversations that we had. I can't begin to imagine your loss, but my thoughts will be with you.

No more pain or suffering,physically or mentally. EVER.Oh how peaceful.My prayer is for this healing peace that only God can provide to fill the hearts and minds of you and your family now and forever.
