“Peace to you, Era, in the arms of your Savior. You will be remembered as a special lady by all those at River Oaks, esp by all the friends at your table. It was even more special that you sent 60th birthday wishes to one of your former 4th grade students last fall--my husband, Scott. Kathie Joy and Kei, it was a pleasure getting to know you both so well. Please accept my & Scott's most sincere condolences. May God bestow peace in your hearts as you remember your mom with love & appreciation.”
