To Sterling and family and to your extended family, sending my expression of sympathy and to let you know you are in my thoughts. You dad was a very special friend to my family; we were very lucky to know him during his time at Hilltop. I will always remember him by the song “I Come to the Garden Alone” and the joy attached to witnessing him (as well as you) sing for us…They are both close to me when I walk in my garden alone
Thank you and God Bless
