Dear Macken Family,
Please accept my heartfelt condolences at this very difficult time. Steve only took care of us "First Street Cousins" once, but he was definitely my favorite babysitter ever! Such a kind and fun loving guy.
What more can I say, except that I guess God really needed two more "Macken" angels for the Christmas Choir this year?
Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Renee
