First thank your for your prayers for all of us, Janet. We sure need to
uplift each other every day. I think you made your point quite eloquently. I
wish I could put my thoughts and feelings into words like you. (I don't have
any excuse for my stupidity.)
Off subject. My son has brought home one of your books for the past 3 years
from the SC Regional Training Conference. He always said what a nice lady
you were and how he likes talking with you for a little while. Maybe next
year I'll be out with him and get to meet you in person.
God Bless,
Sheriff Rainy
