Aunt Dorothy we love you. May Jesus bring your family members peace and comfort. Bonnie and Gracie.
My deepest sympathies extended to Cindy West and family, may you and your family find peace during this difficult time. You all are in my prayers.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We love you Cindy West and please know that we are here for you. God bless, Rest in Peace.
So sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers continue to be with you. Have a safe journey when you head home.
My prayers go out to the Valentine family. As a child, I was one of many children that used the Valentine’s yard and the surrounding woods as a playground. When we were thirsty, Mrs. Valentine was always kind enough to offer us something to drink. I have been friends with Tommy, Bobby, and Cindy. All three were great kids and grew up to be responsible adults. What better legacy can any parent ask for.
My prayers and thoughts to you and your family, Cindy. Losing a parent is one of the hardest things to come to terms with. Please know you have the support of your family and friends in your time of sorrow.
Nancy, Sean and all, our deepest sympathies for the loss of your dear Sister and Aunt…and Mother, Grandmother, Mother-In-Law, and Friend. You and all of Dorothy’s family and circle of friends are in our thoughts and prayers. With Much Love, Kim Hart & Charlie Cooper
