Mrs Pat, I am so sorry for the loss of your sister. The bond between two sisters is irreplaceable. My heart breaks for you.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Barbara and Bob were good friends and clients for many years. I was with them all through Bob’s battling cancer. I enjoyed my time with them. I think they enjoyed my pies as much as my financial advise. I am sorry I missed the service. I work alone and had too much going on. I am certain the message was beautiful, as it always is from Rev Lee. Although Barbara was no longer a client, if there is anyway I can be of help, I am more than glad to do whatever possible to make your lives easier. May God bless you all.
