Dear Mr. & Mrs. Lohman,
First, we would like to take this opportunity to thank youboth for trying to help us with this problem.
We shall never forget your concern and kindness that youboth have shown to our community.
Monday night, we had our meeting with the family members of
the love one who are buried in Oaklynn Cemetery. The
consensus was to let things remain the same right now until
everything is settled.
The city has hired an consultant to come from Tallahassee to
visit Oaklynn Cemetery and we will wait to see and hear the
result.
Thank you both again and may GOD be your light in your time
of trouble.
Sincerely,
15~,Mr. Melv' n Brown, ~ pokesman for
