Caroline,
I am still down south and my heart was truly saddened when I got Laurie's e-mail. I want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers each day. Stand on God's promise that he will not leave us or forsake us, he is with you and will give you comfort and strength.

Caroline....I just came across Scott's obituary on facebook, and the last name caught my eye. His mother, Jane, was my cousin. Her mother, Bessie Harrison, and my father, Roy Smead, were siblings. Jane & I were close as young girls growing up, but we lost touch in later years. I did not know she was deceased, although I did know Scott's father was. I met the children when they were young, but had not seen them for years. I am so very sorry for your loss. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts & prayers. May He Rest In Peace.
