Sicere sympathy to the Family I tried to call him he was keeping me posted his voice was weak I knew he wanted to drudge on in the battle to live after his sister just passed. My heart bleeds he said Evelyn wasn’t well always looking to love & help others never did I think that was my last time to visit with him.
Pray in the days to come the pain with your loss passes swiftly.
Im heavy with burden of sorrow.
