Lefty, Cindy and I were just talking about Barb last night at dinner and we were wondering how she was doing. So very sad to hear of her passing. Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. It was always a pleasure seeing you two together, and knowing how much you both meant to each other.

Our prayers and best wishes go out to you and your family at this time. May God give you peace and comfort as you go through this terrible time.

Lefty,
Your friends from the Ozark Steel Guitar Association
send their heartfelt sympathy. May the Lord give you strength during these difficult days and may He comfort you and your family! There's an old hymn that says, "Does Jesus Care......Oh, yes He cares. His heart is touched with our grief!"
