    Our deepest condolences to her family and friends. Our prayers are for comfort now for those who loved her. She is now with the Lord our Savior Jesus Christ. No more sorrow, no more tears forever like a fluttering butterfly in the morning sun. I’m glad I got to see you once again at Ben and Vi’s wedding. How the time has flown. I will remember you always and so will Ron.
    Louise and Ron Davis
