    Dear Baldwin Family
    My Wife Robin and are so saddened to read of Your Mom’s Passing, and will miss our conversations as we past her house on our weekly walks. I actually loved when she let me have it for stopping at Dunkin Donuts (Defeating the reason for walking) with a bag in my hand.
    We know our words will be of little comfort, but please know we have you all before our FATHER in Heaven, asking HE comfort You all as only HE can, Through Christ our LORD
    GOD Bless
    Paul & Robin Wallace
