Alexis, I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother Sonya. This news is devastating. It has been a while since I spoke with her. She called and told me about the passing of her sister. You probably don't remember me but I know that you've heard her mention Mrs. Marva. I would love to hear from you at your leisure time. 850-212-3305. Again my condolences to you and your family. May God bless you in this time of bereavement. Marva George

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
