[Oe List ...] Celebrating the life of David Rebstock

[Sunny Walker]

Ellen and family,
I know the grieving process is long. May the memories hold you close and
perhaps you'll experience what I've been told are "hugs from the inside."
David was such a quiet force of nature. I appreciate our time of connection.
Blessings,
Sunny
