Message: Mrs. JoAnn Smith and Family;
My heart goes-out to you and your family. Memories, and I am sure there are many, will last a life time for the pain endured cannot be relieved, and your loss can never be replaced.
Know that Life is the most thing that one has. Our time on this earth is short, and none of us know when our sun will set. Thus, we are blessed to be able to make the most of every day we witness the sun to rise.

Please let Grace and me know, if we could be of any help as you move forward with your lives.
