Dearest Jean, We have not seen you lately, but bet you are staying strong and healthy these days. It is so hard to believe that it has been a full year since Tim went Home. You have lived a full year now of 'firsts'. The Lord is extra merciful to the orphans and widows, and may His grace cover you as these days and this anniversary roll on. Sending you our love, Sam and Mavis Galloway

We love you, Forever Wife Jean, and are so so sorry for the grief you and loved ones are buried in presently.
Hold tightly to each other and let the Lord Jesus comfort you day and night, as Tim is so safely Home now, Home and safe and well.
All our love to you, Sam and Mavis Galloway.....
