KRIS AND FAMILY
MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU ALL. I KNOW YOUR LOVE AND DEDICATION TO YOUR MOTHER WILL
REFLECT IN THE LORDS EYES AS HE WELCOMES HER HOME.
UNFORTUNATELY I WILL BE IN VIRGINIA FOR MEETING AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO VISIT.
Kris and Lori,
Our hearts go out to you on your great loss. May you take comfort in the many precious memories that you and your Mom shared.
Love,
John D. and Helen Vi.
Kris and Lori:
I was surprised and saddened to see the obituary for your Mom. She was always so sweet to Dad and myself. I have to leave the morning of Feb 11 on a business trip, so apologize for not being able to come to visitation and bring Dad. He considered her a “compadre” after sharing time in Belmont rehab together. You have our deepest sympathies and are in our prayers.
