Jimmy, Trina, Joe and Amy, Please accept our heartfelt condolences. We know the times of loss you have experienced in the last year have been very difficult.You will continue to be in our prayers. On behalf of the Chaplin Family to the Paino Family; I want you to know how thankful I am that our families were neighbors and friends. That Jim and Louise were obidient in inviting us to Westside were we learned the way of salvation. Though my heart is heavy, I rejoice that they are reunited (possibly as neighbors)praising the Savior together. They will always remain in our hearts. Loving Regards, Mark and Lynn Law

Dear Amy, Please know that I love you and Jason so much and wish I could have been there for you as you were there for me last November when my father passed. Alas, we've reached that time in life when we begin to say farewell to those we love. All the more reason to hold dearly to the love we all have for each other. All my love, David
