Dear Family, Know that my heart is heavy with the loss of Murrill. What short time I knew him, he was a kind and caring person and funny. He will leave an empty space in your lives that will mend in time. I've been there. Prayers for comfort and strength are sent your way today and in the coming weeks. Brenda

Dear Ann & Family. Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of one of the greatest men I knew. He was always ready with a hug or pat on the back, and I will always remember him. Remember these words and I hope they will help you: Revelation 21:4
and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death; there shall no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.
Lean on God and He will help you thru this difficult time. I love you all.

Dear Ann, I'm so sorry for your loss. May God grant you and the boys the strength to get through this. My blood pressure has been so high that I won't be able to be with you except in spirit. Love, Sue Cobb
