What a shock I got upon hearing of your Dad's passing, although I knew his health was declining. To lose both parents within a year must be heart breaking. My thoughts and prayers are certainly with you in this time of grief, loss and sorrow.- wish I could do more but feel so helpless being so far from all of you. Your parents are together again so hopefully this will be of comfort to you. My most heartful sympathies to you girls and your children. - Posted by: Anita Wold (friend) on: Sep 26, 2014
