Sorry for you Loss
The Kennedy family (Tom, Joan, Susan, John, and Kailyn Hale) is saddened to hear of the passing of Charmaine and John. We just heard last night on our way home from church. Ms Joan was told at her church last night. The Westerman family was a blessing to Crescent Springs Baptist Church and to those around them. We will be praying for the family. Our loss is Heaven’s gain.
