I worked with Bobbie at Taylor for many years. She was a fine woman and an excellent and respected employee. I extend my deepest sympathy to the family during this time of sadness and loss.
Dear Teresa…….We were so very sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother. May you and your family members feel the presence of God as he surrounds you with his loving care and puts comfort in your heart that only He can do. Lean on Him and He will give you the strength you need now and in the days, weeks, and months ahead. Thinking of you in friendship and sympathy.
