I will sorely miss Dinah. She was such a beautiful soul on earth and will surely watch over you in her heavenly home. I regret that I was not able to attend her funeral, but surely she knows that I love her. I am forever grateful for your coming to see Herbert during his illness and keeping us in your prayers. I know that she is at peace and at rest in God's arms.
