It is difficult to find words to express our gratitude for the many kindnesses friends, family and co-workers have shown us during this sad time in the loss of our mother, Sara Pippin.

We are so grateful for all you have done for us. The cards, letters, phone and e-mail messages, prayers and visits meant a great deal to us as we struggled with our heartbreaking loss. Along with the emotional support you gave us, the meals, chores and other gifts of your time and energy has helped sustain us day to day. We especially want to thank the wonderful people of First Baptist Church of Chula and the Chula community for the wonderful food and outpouring of love that was provided to the family. We would also like to thank Brent Duncan with United Hospice of Cordele.

In case we have missed sending someone an individual thank-you note, please know that your generosity and thoughtfulness have touched us deeply.

Knowing that we are not alone helped us bear our grief and sadness. Thank you for being there for us.

With sincere thanks,

Tom Pippin, Robert Pippin, Cheryl Gibbs Seagroves and Mike Pippin
