October 4, 2017 at 5:45 pmTo my dear friend Traci, my heart breaks for your entire family right now and I wish you all of God’s grace and peace for you during this terrible time. Although I never met your mother, there were years and years of stories of this loving family matriarch. Her family was the most important thing to her and she leaves behind a legacy that all can admire. I know Jody and Renee were there to welcome her on that very sad day. There are no words, she left you too soon. All my love friend. Kathy

I shall miss you greatly at backyard picnics, baby showers, weddings, birthday gatherings. I loved you as a sister.
