My heart and prayers go out to you, There is no greater pain than loosing a loved one. I am sorry that I am not able to be there with you, to share your pain. The Tucker family played a big part in my life along time ago and we have shared a lot of good times and bad. There is one thing I know and that Gods is a good God and he does not make any mistakes. Anna Lee was a beautiful spirit that loved life, did things her way and loved her family and touched and influenced so many lives. I praise God that she is out of her pain. My prayer for you is that God will wrap his arms and give you peace and comfort

I could write a page, two pages, or a book and not be able to express to the family how much I care and empathize with you. A mother is the hardest person in our lives to lose. I know.

I wish these in the sweet and precious name of Jesus Christ.
