" Please accept my condolences on the loss of Rellius, my first cousin. Didn't know him well but his Aunt Sid, my Mom, when she was with us, was so very proud of him. Surely he has received his eternal reward and is one with his Maker. Love and prayers to the rest of the family I hope to meet one day.
