Dear Dorothy, I was sorry to hear that your Auntie Lorene had passed away. I spent many profitable hours in a group Bible study in her home. After that your aunt and I had many friendly visits over a cup of tea in her home or mine. I know you will all miss her. Please know that you and all your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Kay.

Dear Jessie; Our thoughts and prayers are with you in the loss of your dear sister, Lorene. We enjoyed having Lorene drop in to the Sunday services at the Pentecostal Church when she was visiting family in Mt. Forest. (1967 - 1972) We know her suffering is now over and she is with her Lord and Saviour whom she loved and served so faithfully. Please convey our sympathy to your family.
