Angie, Lavonne, Chris and Mr.& Mrs Ritenour:
It's taken me a little time to
write but I just wanted all of you to know that I am so sorry about Dawn. Dawn
and I had good times together many years ago but even though are paths didn't
cross very much lately whenever they did Dawn would always yell at me or catch
up to me and we would have the opportunity to chat a little. Please find
comfort in knowing that others are praying for you.
