I send my condolences and prayers to you and your family, from my family. Wishing the best of memories to console you and yours.

I met Mrs New in June. I was her aide. Mrs New always spoke so loving about her family. I never heard a person speak so nice about their family. She was very appreciative of my service to her. Until the resurrection Mrs New rest in peace. I will miss you.
