Dear Mr. True and Sharon...I just read the news on the website and I am so very sorry to hear that Mrs. True has passed. I always loved being with her and I will always remember the night that she pierced my ears with ice and a needle. She was a very patient and loving lady and I know she will be missed very, very much. I wish I could be there with you at this time, but know that I am thinking about you and that I love you both. The love and kindness that your family has shown me over the years is in my heart and I am praying now for your healing and peace in the coming days and months. I love you both.
