My prayers go out to you each and every day. My wife and I have always loved your articles. Marsha passed away
on Jan. 12, 2021, from a rare form of cancer known as peritoneal carcinomatosis. It was a short seven months from being diagnosed to her passing; everything happened so quickly.

We are all praying for your welfare.
