I will like to express my condolences to your family for the death of your loved one. A loved one lost can grieve the heart, and make us yearn for the day when Jah will keep the promise he made of no pain, no death, and no sorrow.

My sympathy to Elsie and Matt. I will never forget Mr "B" as my first boss. He was kind and had patience. He loved his family and his Lexus.

Sincerly,

Pat (Johnston) Ruthenberg
