Dear David, My heart was saddened upon hearing that your mom had completed her life's journey. Ours was a friendship that lasted 30+ years, starting here in Coatesville, PA. She is now at peace. It seems like only yesterday that we were here together, me, your mom, you, and "Snoopy". I even remember the garden she had and enjoyed the fruits of labor, not to mention the fantastic vanilla pudding she made. I haven't had any that good since she left Coatesville. Although no words can really help the loss you bear, just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. May your memories give you strength and may the love of those around you help you through the days ahead. You do not walk the way of sadness alone. Hold to God's unchanging hand and trust Him for the journey. I thank God for Linda being a part of my life who always remained a true friend. Take care and know that I love you also. Beverly
