Coach John Williamson
Mark, Dee & Grandchildren,
I am so very sorry to hear of Lucy’s passing. I so loved both your Mom and Dad. I have many enjoyable memories from the days I worked in her beauty shop years ago. I also would run into both of them many times at Sam’s Club where your Dad was patiently waiting in the food court while your Mom shopped. We always had a few laughs and sweet conversations on those occasions.
They were both lovely and kind hearted souls.
I know the feelings of profound grief of losing both parents as you both are experiencing now and in the days ahead.
I am sure it gives you peace and solace to know that they are both reunited in paradise with our Lord.
May God comfort you as only he can do.
Marshall also sends you his deepest sympathies.
Love,
Marshall & Sandy (Madden) Pauley
