We are so sorry to hear of Alva's passing. What wonderful memories we have of her and her visits to Lexington. After losing John's father this June, we found this saying which says it all:
When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. Love from JoAnn, John, Patrick, J.J., Michelle, and Katie

I don't know if you remember me or not but we lived in Beech Grove not far from you. Even though it's been a long, long time, your family is still very dear to my heart. I am so very sorry about Alva, please accept my deepest sympathy.

Dearest Lisa,
I was so saddened to learn on Tuesday that your mother had passed. Our conversation last week did not leave me with the feeling this would come so soon.
Please know that my prayers are with you and your family at this time. Having lost my mother 3 years ago I can tell you that not a day will go by that you do not think of her.
Blessings,
Jana
