`My sincerest condolences on behalf of my father and myself and our families.
It is never easy to loose a mother – even when we know she is in a much better place. Losing a brother also makes the word “Sympathy” seem way too inadequate. My prayers are with them and especially you Sherri. “Little George” was the ring-bearer in my wedding when he was just 7 years old. He was adorable as were you, his big sister. Mary Jane and George Senior were responsible for introducing my parents and they always felt like more than just friends – they were always special to us.
May God bless you as you move on into the next chapter of your life.
With love and sympathy,
June

Sherri and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of both your mom and your brother. You are in my prayers.
To Mary Jane’s family,
I’d like to express my sincere condolences. Mrs. Meyers was my piano teacher for almost ten years when I was younger. She was a caring woman who went out of her way for her students. I credit her with helping to develop my deep appreciation for music. I’ll remember her fondly.
Sincerely,
Cameron Redwine
