I am so sorry to learn of Andrew's death. I never met him, but I and my sisters (Ann and Connie, and my son James, grew up with Andrew's father, who was Daddy's good friend, and right hand man not only at the shrimp dock, railway, but also on the many "trips to tend the lights" for the U.S. Coast Guard. My deepest condolences to all.

Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Deepest sympathy to the entire family on the transition of Mr. Sanders to his heavenly home. Dishone and family know that our prayers are being sent for strength and peace. Meditate on Matthew 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.
