Dorothy Lorraine "Dottie" McKenna Stoner

"We are touched by Angels walk where angels tread. They will guard and guide us through the days ahead. In times of sorrow, as in the days of joy, they bring us hope and comfort nothing can destroy. In the hours of darkness, when our dreams have flown they bring us peace and healing. We are not alone through times of doubting, still they understand. We are touched by angels, walking hand in hand." unkbr>
