Dear family,
I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Uncle Olin. I will always remember him as a very nice quiet person. I will not be able to attend the service tomorrow as Misty, my daughter, has an appointment at ETSU. I am very sorry. I will be thinking about you all and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. May God be very real to you all at this time and keep his loving hand over you and sustain you. God Bless You.
