Dear Family,
I am so sorry for your loss and pray that God will help you through this time of sorrow. I thought I might share a few feelings that Aunt Jimmie brought me. She had a wonderful way to retell a story such as learning to drive a car or the car accident that happened in the snow in NY. No matter the content, you had to hear it from Aunt Jimmie or it was not the same. Anytime I think of her, a smile comes across my face. She was the kindest, sweetest, most gentle person I have ever known and she will be missed. May God bless you and your family.
Sincerely,
Matthew Giddens & Family
