Dear Rhonda,

Oh, how sad. I'm certainly praying for you and your entire family. 
Sending you bunches of lovings and squeezings. Remember, tears are 
good. God collects our tears in a bottle. My hands are so cold, I can 
hardly type.

I'm praying for a complete healing for your hearts. Grieving is very 
important. We're all here for you. If you need to talk, please call 
me I'm here for you.

Loving you bunches,

Pat Ferguson
