    I will miss Mrs. Deborah deeply. She was the sweetest soul. Seeing her always made my day a little better.

    Although we never met you we feel like we have known you and your beautiful daughters for a long time.
    Through welcoming Elizabeth Hardiman to our family and her introducing us to Ashley over the internet we became a small part of the USA family.
    We wish to send our prayers and sympathy to the family
    With love
    Melissa, Matthew and Jacob xxx
