Alan - I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I only wish I could have been the one to do the set-up for your mother; I would've given you my best. Brenda and I are keeping you and the family in our prayers. See you soon.

Aunt Billie was one of my favorites from the Clark side of the family. Last time I saw her was at my dad's funeral in 1998. I just returned from Thailand and as planning a road trip to locate and visit the "Clark" side of the family. I know John and Alan well. I am so sorry to hear of Aunt Billie's passing. May God embrace her and the close family members. Payers and thoughts to each of you.

Grieve-as-you must, not-as-others will say you should, shouldn't or whatever. Travel-the-pathways ahead as there-is-no single pathway for all but each-has-their own. May God bless you and yours, Alan and Joyce. I love you. I know you have known this was coming and praying for her new life.
