Rich,
We were sadden to hear of your Mom’s passing. We have enjoyed getting to know her and your dad at church. Our prayers will be with all of you during this time.
I’m praying for you all as you experience the grief of your loss. I pray that as you share stories with both laughter and tears, you will experience the Lord’s presence to comfort you individually and together as a family. I also pray that as you grieve and miss her, you will have a deep sense of the hope in Christ through which we know we will see our loved ones again.

Dear Rich,
What a ‘rich’ legacy your mother has left in you and your family! Thank you so very much for your faithfulness to the Lord and the message of His freedom and love. May the Lord keep you in His peace in this season and in the hope of His glory which your mother already rests in. We praise God for your mother, for raising you and your brother. Multitudes have been blessed through your family! Praise God!
Rich
We are praying for you all. We never met your Mom but she certainly left a great legacy in the family members we do know.
With love
