Dear Barbara and Adrian;

Sorry to hear about your loss. Saw

your notice in the obituary and was

so shocked. I remember your sister well, and the stories she use to tell about her journeys. Just wanted to let you know that I care and that I am praying for you.

Dear Barbara and Adrian;

We are so sorry to hear about your

lost. Today I happened to be looking

in the obituary section, due to the

deaths of other old friends. Your

sister's name totally shocked me.

I remember the old times with both of you, and the times she would share her adventures as a private

caretaker. Just wanted you to know

that I care and that I will be praying for all of you.
