Ewart and Family,

My deepest sympathies on Edna's passing.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Unfortunately I will be away this weekend and cannot be there to support you all, but be assured that you will all be in my thoughts and prayers.
May she Rest In Peace and May Her Memory Be Eternal.

Dennis

Vanessa, Even though I cannot be there with you, I am sending you all love and strength from St. John’s. Take care of your grandfather. 68 years married. Wow. I cannot imagine how different his life is now without his soul mate. I hope he can take pleasure in the memories. Love, Susan

Vanessa and family,
I am so sorry about your grandmother. She sounds like an amazing woman. I bet you have inherited some of her traits for sure.
Know we are thinking of you all and sending loving thoughts to help you through this difficult time.
