We pray that all your wonderful fond memories help you during your sadness. She was my “walking” mentor and lunch buddy at FOA and also a fellow street rodder. She will be missed.

I am very sorry for your loss. Mrs. Chandler was always very kind when I was at your house, which was often! Your family has always been the very definition of “the all-american family” to me. Please pass my condolences along to Marie. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.
