We are praying for you during this difficult time at the loss of your mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother. She clearly showed her joy when she was with you and we know how much you loved her and now miss her. Losing her so unexpectedly is especially difficult but peace can be found in knowing that she is with her Lord and Savior. May God send you comfort and peace to get you through this incredibly difficult time.

We wish to extend our deepest condolences to the Chamber family. How tragic!! Susan and Bill had not yet met George, my husband of 13 years. The obituary stated that she passed away unexpectedly. She was a kind-hearted and generous person. Enjoyed spending time with this family as we shared many Lake City Church activities. We are really going to miss her. Please take good care.
