To the Family of the Late Mary Melvina (Sampson) Samson: I am writing to express my sincere sympathy on the death of your loved one, Mary. Those whose lives she touched will not soon forget Mary’s contribution to the community. Words can never put into perspective the sorrow and emptiness that is suffered at such a loss as yours. I do hope your pain is eased somewhat by knowing that others too feel sadness and want to share that very heavy burden. I will be thinking of you all in the days ahead. My prayers are with you.

We know that God has welcomed her into his loving arms and she will rest there with those who have gone before her for eternity.
