Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floor piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you prayed a sincere prayer or came to pay a call. Perhaps you sang a cheerful song if so, we heard it all. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words as any friend could say. Perhaps you prepared a tasty dish or maybe furnish a car. Perhaps you rendered a service unseen near at hand, or from a far. Whatever you did to console our hearts by word or deed or touch, whatever was the kindly part, we thank you all so very much. ~ The Family ACTIVE PALLBEARERS Anthony Burdine Kenenth Burdine II Darius Burdine Byron Burdine Brandon Burdine Ray Burdine III
