Mrs. Clancy, Kay, and Family



My sincere condolences on the loss

of your husband and father. Kathy

and I went to high school together

and have not spoken in probably 30 years, but I remember the proudly related stories of her very loving

and strong family. I know God and that love and strength will comfort you in the days ahead, because I do

believe He is holding you in the palm of His hand.

Peace to all of you ...
