"Maggie I sure do miss you. We last spoke on Gene's birthday. I knew it would be a rough day for you. So sorry I didn't call you again. I thought of you often I really enjoyed out talks. I know you are happy now to be with Gene again. I was sorry I was unable to attend your service but you were in my thoughts and prayers"

"Dear Swafford family, My heart goes out to you during this difficult time. Losing a loved one is extremely painful so may we look forward to God's promise to eliminate death, pain and mourning. (Revelation 21:3,4) Since we do not know what it feels like to live in a world free of suffering and death, may we continue to remain hopeful."

"Walter and Becky, We are so sorry for your loss, we know being the only one left is very hard. After losing a sister we can sympathize and know what you are going through. We are unclear as to who Carla and Danny is since we know that Gene and Maggie had no kids. We just pray that God will comfort you through your loss. We love you Both!"
