    Sincerely regret not being able to attend visitation. Our heartfelt condolences to all who knew and loved her.

    I will always remember being together as a family when I was little with Jack, Doris, Nancy, Linda, David and Bill who was a good friend.

    My sister Doris was always very kind to me and I remember her great sense of humor and love for her family.

    Please accept our condolences and have the hope that Jesus Christ as the first born of all those resurrected from the dead will remember all those who pass in death and will welcome them back to a paradise earth in the near future.
