Marsha, I know I am a name from the past but I saw Rons’ obituary and I’m so sorry for you. I will keep you in my prayers. Love, Linda
I’m so sorry to learn of your loss. I am assuming that it was cancer that took Ron, and I hope you had time to adjust to what was to come. Regardless, I know that it is still the most difficult thing to endure. I’m sure your boys will stand strong by you and be there for you as needed. I will pray for God to give you the strength to endure, recover, and move forward. Love,
Marcia Leyden (Timmerman)
