Judy and family,
I'm so thankful to have shared some time with all of you prior to Wink's passing. The whole family showed such love, devotion and strenth.
All of you have my sympathy as you make your way through this passage, realizing there isn't really any way to prepare yourself for the loss of a parent or husband. (I remember feeling so vulnerable when dad died.) But, just as all of you brought comfort to Wink during his illness, I pray his memory will bring comfort to all of you.
Wink was special and he will be missed by many. My love and prayers go out to all of you.
Carolyn Hoffman
Frederick,Md.
