Dear Family of Victoria Massie,I have very good memories of Mrs. Massie, she contributed to my love of reading and made things very pleasantfor me whenever I was in her company. I want to express my sincere sympathy for the loss you are experiencing. You can be assured that there is hope for all who suffer during these times of grief. The Bible holds the promise of a time when there will be no more pain, from any source this can be found at Revelations 21:3, 4. What a wonderful hope for us all. I hope this provides a measure of comfort for your family. Please take care of yourselves and keep the good memories of your loved one close. Sincerely
