Randy and I are so sorry we can’t come to Val’s service at the chapel or the celebration of her life. We met each other in the strangest situation. I was happy to have had the opportunity to spend some good times here in
in Norfolk with her. She helped me with my boys so I could help other USS King families. She was a joyful person to spend time with. Randy and I will continue to keep your family in our hearts and prayers. Love, Marti-Ann

Do so wish we could be there...k ow it will be a wonderful memorial service. Julius is having back pain, again ..and can't drive or walk very far. It's back to PT, again. Will be thinking of you all. I am waiting for another eye shot, and can't drive right now. We sent a memorial gift to Good Samaritan...know they were very helpful. Love and prayers for all.

Lorie, Bob and I want to be there we are both sick and don't want to spread any germs. Is there going to be a video of the celebration of her life. I so want to be there. We are having trees planted in her memory also donating to hospice. Sending our love to you all!

Lorie, Mark and I will attend the visitation and funeral. We both plan to begin our drives back to our respective states. NC for Mark. Delaware for me. I would like to plant a tree for Valarie. I hope they really do include yall in that planting.
