Thank You

From the family of Jeanette Wilson:
We would like to first thank Nick for doing the funeral for Mom. A huge thank you to Davis Park Church of Christ for the meal that followed the funeral and her graveside service. I would like to express my deepest appreciation for all that has been done over the last few years for my mother. Please continue to pray for our family as we learn our new normal without our precious mom.

Thank you,
Michael & Erica Wilson
