    To the Hill Family:
    We are very sorry about your double loss of your father and mother. They just needed and wanted to be together.
    Do you remember when we were kids at the Scott Reunion (Elizabeth) ? My father’s mother was Georgeda Scott, a sister of your grandpa. However, she died before our generation. Our parents kept in touch through the years.
    May God be with each of you and bring you peace and comfort. He knows your sorrows and walks with you through these times.
