I'm very sorry to hear about Reva's passing. Unfortunately, I will be out of town and can't attend the funeral. This is an impersonal way to communicate, but I do want to express my condolences at your loss. May the Lord bless you as you adjust to live without your wonderful wife, mother and grandmother.

I live in Utah, and tonight Darla emailed me to show me to look at Wood's online obituaries. I love what you wrote about Reva! I have such fond memories of her sweet disposition! I loved the picture tribute you put together -- it allowed me to see Earl, Claudia, and Vicki, too. Seeing Claud in his bib overalls was a thrill to me, too! Your family was especially good to my parents -- and I thank you. I know Reva will be closer than you think -- and helping more than you thought she could!
Love,
Colleen
