Words cannot express my sorrow of the passing of your wife and mother and my wonderful friend, Connie. I feel so blessed to have known her and her wonderful family. The afternoon I spent with her a few weeks ago are very precious to me. She wanted so much to last through Christmas, so she could spend one more holiday with all of you. God granted her that one wish, and now she has been called home . I shall miss her dearly as I know all of you shall.
