Sincere sympathy to Marina's entire family. We were shocked to hear Delta's dear mother had passed away. Knowing how close she (and we're sure the rest of you) were to her, we can only add our prayers to those of many others who care. We are only blessed with one mother and when that person who gave us life is gone it is one of the most difficult things we must deal with in our lives. In prayer ..

Greg, Colletta, & Delta, Please accept our sincere and hearfelt sympathy in the loss of your wife & mother. Mrs. G and I were always impressed with the care and love she showed you two girls in all our contacts with her at school. It was obvious she loved you very, very much. Losing my dad at age 20, I know all too well the pain of losing a parent early in life. We pray that God will bring comfort to you in the form of the love and support of your family and friends. Mr. & Mrs. "G"
