TO OUR CHURCH FAMILY,  Thank you so much for such a wonderful send-off!  Seeing all of you again was a reminder of just how blessed we have been over the years to have such a special church family.  We truly consider all of you to be our dearest friends.  The meal was delicious as usual, and the cross will have a special place in our home.  Remember, this is not a farewell, just a change of address!  Come see us!  

Love,
