Arthur,
My heart goes out to you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Emma was a wonderful woman and loved by many. I know that your life was blessed by having her as a part of it. I pray that God will give you the “peace that passes all understanding” as you face the days ahead. Love to you. Linda Upchurch Hutchison
