Eric; I remember your Mom and her beautiful
red hair from high school days in Malvern. So
thankful we crossed paths with you and Virginia
in our travels the past few years.
My heartfelt sympathy to you and the rest of the

Sending prayers in the loss of Jenny. She was a delightful friend that Jim and I met and knew for several years. We always had fun together at Sun Bay Resort and maintained our friendship for many years with her and Waylon. We had lots of family memories of the entire family. I lost Jim 5 years ago and Jenny and I have talked and written over the years. I will miss her and all the good times we had. I will keep family in my prayers. Love, Carol Dewitt
