My dear Melinda
I'm so sorry about Mark, I read this in the paper and slmost fell out of my chair. I called Nancy Galasso and told her and she didn't know you were back either. It's just so hard to believe that this could happen to someone so young. We didn't know you had moved back from Florida. I wish you had let someone know you were back, I'm still in Frankfort, Nancy lives in G-town and works in F-fort too. I guess Rachel is about a teenager by now, it's hard to believe its been about 10 years. I think of you alot, I still have your old Fla. email. I want you to know that I'm thinking and praying for you. Nancy and I thought we might be able to come Wed. but we won't be able to. Please take care and keep the faith that God has a plan and God wanted Mark to come home now rather than later. Nancy and I would like to get together with you in the near future when you get back in G-town. Please let us know your email or address or phone #'s so we can contact you. We would love to see you and the girls. Again please take care of yourself, and the girls and if you need anything please free feel to call anytime. I'm in G-town every month doing drug testing at a factory, that's what I do for a living, fulltime drug testing. Nancy was going to email Lisa Newton and let her know.
Take care --Love ya
