To Lorraine and family. Sending my love and condolences for the loss of your mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, and my Aunt Celestia. Aunt Celestia will certainly leave a hole in your hearts as you have had the opportunity to enjoy her presence for so many years. May all the fond memories you have of those years with her lessen the heartache you feel and give you peace. You are in my thoughts. Love, Margie and Bill
