Dear Family,

I send my love and prayers to you all. Rhonda, my friend, I am thinking of you and your family. Your mom gave me my first hair cut. She was as nice as she could be, and what did she get? A 5-year old or so crying so pathetically! I did NOT want to be there. Well, we finally made friends. I will remember your mom as very kind, and wonderfully sharing her gifts. I pray for your family that you feel much strength from your friends, and I pray for Peace to come now, and more and more in time. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Ralph, Rhonda, Adam and Toniann,
What sad news. Like most people I was so shocked to read about Brenda in the paper. For years she was my hairdresser, which means we went through a lot together. It was always a pleasure to sit in "her chair." More recently enjoyed seeing the two of you dancing at the CRC. What smooth dancers, always knew you would be on the floor when "Brenda" was playing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in the days ahead. May her soul rest in peace. Blessings to you all, Jeanne and Don Gerhardt
