Robin’s Daily Quote: “In His Peace”

Heart of Gratitude

Perhaps you sent a lovely card, or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a flower, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest of words, as any friend would say. Perhaps you
were not here at all, just thought of us that day. Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much, whatever the part.

The Family

The Murphy Family would like to extend our sincere gratitude to George Brothers Funeral
Services for the exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism shown to our family during

We are deeply appreciative of the dignity, respect, and loving care you extended to our family,
