Dear Joy and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your sweet Mother's passing. I have fond memories years ago of her driving us to the horse barns and her sincere interest in all the "children". She was both a lovely and strong person. Know that your friends are keeping you and yours close in prayers at this difficult time. Take good care -- Love, Paige Goodwin Rose
