My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Although I hadn’t seen RC in quite a few years, I always appreciated his outlook on life and his positive attitude. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Mary! I am so very sorry to hear about RC! I always think of you every time I go to the Harmony area and how you always tried to give me directions to Rosewood and I was always confused! I will keep you and your family in my prayers! My sympathies to you…

Harry and I have enjoyed getting to know R.C. He was so blessed to have you, Mary, and the children and grandchildren. I’m sure the in-laws felt as close to him as his own. That’s rare in today’s world. Hugs and prayers.
