    Cousin Sandy Boyd

    Dear Cousins, It is so difficult to lose our dear aunt, but I am certain that another angel just got her wings. She was such an important part of our lives, and nothing but the love, mercy, and grace of God can fill that void. May the Lord fill you with the peace that passes all understanding and comfort your heavy hearts. How amazing our reunion with her will some day. ~ Cousin Sandy Boyd, Temple, Texas
