I had the pleaasure of working with Virginia at Karastan. I always made a point of going by to see her in the Setting Department, because I knew she would greet me with a smile and her wonderfully positive outlook that would brighten my day. She always remembered me at Christmas with tins of goodies and an ornament. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

To The Smart Family: Words cannot express the pain and sorrow that you feel in the loss of your love one. Please keep in mind God's promise found in the Bible at John chapter 5, verses 28&29. It reads: "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life." In the days ahead when you are feeling sad, think about the resurrection hope and seeing your love one again. You are in my prayers.
