John and surviving family of Barbra Lee,
Even though I don't think I ever met her after she married John, I'd still like to offer my most sincere condolences in the loss of Barbra. I will pray for a easing of the pain caused by Barbra's passing, and the strength to get thru the days ahead, as each of you work thru the emptiness of her passing. May God bless each and every one of you during this season in your lives.
