    Vicki and Family, My sincerest sympathy to you, Bob Cummings and all of Janet's family and dear friends. I'm so glad I got the chance to meet Janet (again) and Bob, when you were here on vacation. It was fun to hear all the reminiscing at dinner with you, Janet, Bob and Denny & Gail. I know Janet's passing will leave a big void in many lives. Even though life can be cruel when it takes loved ones from us, it can't take the love and fond memories that comfort us. I wish you all, comfort and peace...God be with you. Love Marty

    I am so sorry for your loss of this wonderful woman. God promises that He will redeem our loved ones from the power of the grave, from death He will recover them. (Hosea 13:14) Then the righteous will possess the earth and live forever on it. (Psalm 37:29). The Bible gives us hope.
