Dear Walter,
Unfortunately Campbell was not feeling well yesterday and so we watched the funeral service on YouTube. It was wonderful how your two families came together to pay tribute to a wonderful wife and mother. The tributes were inspiring and well delivered in spite of the obvious emotional reactions and real sense of loss.
Dot was a wonderful example of a person untouched by advancing years. We were always highly amused by her
concern for the elderly and she never showed any sign of being "over the hill."
We know that in our Father's house there are many resting places and that she goes to a prepared place where Jesus
has waited for her. We pray that you will be prepared also to face the inevitable broken relationship and the painful
loss that all those of us in loving marriages must face.
With all of our love in Christ Jesus
Annie and Campbell
