  1. Tina and family, I’m sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you all. Please know I would be there with you but I’m having surgery on the 25th & recovery of 72 hours with my feet up is required. I will be praying for you on Saturday as this will be a time of recovery for me still. Tina, I’ll be in touch with you in an appropriate time.
