I wish to send my prayers to all of the family and friends that may need this additional support in this time. Cancer has touched so many lives, in so many families. I hope the struggle of time one endures after such an event, can only enlighten our thoughts and memories of what is important in life. Bring those close to you and mend our ways. Time can be so short, yet so long in other means. Prayers and Blessings to you all that may need that enlightment to see the light at this time.

Randy and family,
It is with great saddness that I am writing this condolence, your family is in our thoughts and prayers. I was hoping that this day wouldn''t come for a much longer time. When you told us, I was hoping that her time on this earth would be longer, may you always cherish those memories and remember that she fought a great battle! She will forever be your special ANGEL!
