Sue, We were so sorry to hear about Sam. Sherri Elledge called me but I was unable to come to the memorial as I have been fighting a sinus infection and headaches for a week. Our thoughts are with you and the family as God gives you his strength and comfort at this time. I’ll surprise you sometime and come by to talk old times.
Sue, I just want you to know that my heart and prayers go out to you at this time in your life. I’ve been thinking about you a lot since I heard about Sam. If you ever need anything, all you have to do is call me. Lou
Thinking of you at this time. We are so sorry about Sam.
