"We would like to extend our condolences to the family of Lucille. She was a lovely lady and we really enjoyed visiting with her at CrownPointe, my Mother Faith Combs who lived there until her death was also very fond of her. I think Bonnie will remember us. We really missed visiting with all of the ladies at CrownPointe after Mother passed away.Give a special "Hello" to Bernice and Jean. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Jack and Becky Cain"
