Dear Jill - Bob, Mary and family:



How saddened I was to learn of Garry's death. I had been praying so for his healing. God does not desire the pain, suffering and grief that is felt at this time, but He is there to sustain you.



I have wonderful memories of Garry - and the girls - in activities at church. May the memories of family and special times comfort you at this time.



Please know that all of the Martin/Brent family are praying for you - grieving with you.



Thoughtfully,

Barbara Martin
