Amos, Billy, Ronald and entire family. I am so sorry for your loss. Gwen and I were school mates and she was always so bubbly and full of life. She never met a stranger. Although we did not see each other in these latter years when I did see her she was always very friendly. I will miss her and I know you all will miss her more. But keep the faith knowing that you all will meet again, some sweet day,
