Sonny,
I'm sorry to hear of Joyce's passing. I'll surely miss sitting with you at St. Joseph's on Saturdays. Take care! May you and your family feel God's comfort and peace.

Joyce was my e-mail pal for a long time . We never met but my daughter Tamee gave me her e-mail address and we started sending our e-mails. We were going to get together soon , I am so sorry we never made it. I know how bad it hurts to lose a mate . I am thinking of you Tommy and your family. Peg N. Hardin

Lorna,

I am so sorry to learn of your Mother's death. My heart goes out to you. May God bless and comfort you & your family in the days ahead & may He wrap you in His loving arms to console you through your grief.
We never know who we know that is related to sothers we know, although I didn't know your Mother personally, I had met her & talked with her several times for different reasons. I felt she was a kind and caring woman, just from my contact with her.
With deepest sympathy for you and your family.
In Christian Love, Tamara

my condolances go out to sonny and his family, ironically, just the other day, i was talking about you sonny and also was telling a friend how nice your wife was to me as a child. i also told him how i remember how pretty she was too. as a bonus to her demeanor and looks, she was a wife and mother. i hope your families suffering will be short. fletcher
