My dear husband of 50 years, 4 months and 2 days. Life is so empty without you.
Cindy, This was such a beautiful service, the pastor did such a nice sermon. “Mary did you know” is one of my most favorites too! We loved seeing the photos of everyone and sorry we weren’t able to hug you in person. Please know all our thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this difficult time. Love, Ron and Linda Culpepper
