You be miss I will pray for your family
Thank you so much.
So sorry for your loss Mr Newton. We haven’t seen you since Gracie’s funeral but you have always been a friend to us and just know you are in our hearts. Mrs Newton was a beautiful soul with a great laugh. I know she is laughing in heaven now.
Thank you so much.
