Tammy and Jimmy,
I am so sorry for your loss. I full intended on attending the funeral but I became very ill Sunday morning as I was walking out the door for church. It saddens me so that I was unable to come and support you both in this time of need. I have you both in my thoughts and prayers. God's Grace......Sandy Connor Hightower
