“In memory of James Smith”

Irma Blanco-Calderon lit a candle

“In loving memory of Mr. James Smith. Although I did not have a privilege of meeting him, I know he was a fine man through his wife, Mrs. Sandra Sloan Smith, who was my computer science teacher in junior high and high school. I also know he was a remarkable man through his baby girl, Meredith, who went to school with me and became a fine woman. My love and all my prayers are extended to your lovely family during this time. Peace, Prayers and Blessings.”
