I know that words are inadequate at a time like this, but I wanted you to know how very sorry my family is for your loss. I am so sorry that I couldn’t make it to the funeral. We had to be in Tennessee for Natalie’s graduation. Please know that I am thinking of all of you and praying for you. Miss Debbie, you and Mr. Benny was a big part of my childhood. I know he will be deeply missed. Sending my love to you all.
