Dear David and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Louise. She will always be in my heart. I will never forget the Summer spent in Arkansas. It is still talked about to this day and will never forget. I know she is in heaven with Uncle George. It's too bad our families live so far apart. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Love always from Pennsylvania!

David and family, I am so sorry to hear about Louise. I have such fond memories of her and George going back to childhood. I'm sure there was an angelic celebration welcoming her into heaven in her new body greeted by family and friends. She'll be missed here! Thinking of you all.
Love,
Vicki, and Joe too!

David,
Prayers for your family. I remember many great times with your Mom & Dad while we made many boyhood memories as we grew up. So glad there is much reason to celebrate her new healthy body.
