Sorry about your loss. I can remember coming to your house years ago to take piano lessons.
Sorry to say I never really became a good piano player. I also remember going to school with Virginia. Just wanted you to know that My thoughts are with the family.

Dearest Virginia & Family: I'm so
very sorry for the loss of your Dad. I know this is a very difficult time for you and your family as we lost Dad April 7,2008.
We are still in shock and disbelief
that he is gone.
My prayers are with all of you at this time. Take care of your Mom (as I know you will) because I know
how losing your partner for so many years can be. It's hard to believe that we lost our Dad's within 2 months of each other.
I think of you often. Take care and
Love to you and your Family.
your ole Diamond & Sunderland buddy. love, Linda Hall Morris,
Lee, Josh, Jill and my granddaughter-Kailyn Morris

We walk alone...
Wandering
on this road of many paths
Friends and family come and go
Drifting in and out
on this road of many paths
The horizon is always there
just beyond reach
Until the day
that we are no longer alone
Friends and family
--past and present
Raise up a cry of joy!
A wanderling has come home
Greeted by all the
Angels of heaven
Never to be alone again
on the road of many paths.
---
Words never do justice to the feelings of sympathy and grief (both together) that we feel at this time. Junior was a gret man and he will be missed by so many.
I love you all.
Marsha
