Deepest regrets on the passing of my cousin. Although I hadn't seen her in close to 60 years, I remember her has having been very kind.

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.
