    A Mr. Boxer was on dialysis several years ago. He spoke highly of his wife and family. I even hemmed a pair of slacks for his wife. I,ve never met any of his family but just letting you know I knew family by listening to mr. Boxer. My husband was on dialysis at the same time.

    Craig, Nancy, Jamie, Jill & Kelly,

    I am so sorry to hear of the death of Edith. I recall having great conversations with her when I would do services at Craigweil Gardens. She was always such a joy to see. May God be with all of you in your sadness and give you the strength you need to see you through the days ahead. Jamie, please know that Trish sends her sympathies, as well.

    Blessings,
    Sue McCullough+
