    Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. Anita was a fine lady who we enjoyed most of the time at Nifty Fifty's. She had a beautiful smile that was her trademark. We know that as life goes on for the remainder of us, it too, will go on for her in her heavenly home with Gene and those who have gone before her. Be happy that she is once again happy, young and at peace with God and herself. May God also bring to you his comfort and peace as you mourn her passing. His peace and understanding will help you through this time and hopefully bring you together as a family once again.
    With Love & Prayers,
    Richard & Joan
