To Sharon, Sylvia and all the cousins, I heard of your mother's passing from this life from Kathy Dickinson. I know it has not been easy in these last years, and that we share hope in eternal life in Christ, but the dying is still a significant moment and it is painful to let let go. Lynn and I offer our prayers and hopes for your consolation now and in the coming months. For myself, I cherish the memories of your mother, especially at family picnics. She was always light and most gracious. I know these characteristics live on in you. God bless you and keep you, (Deacon) Paul Duckro
