Dear Friends, Neighbors of Vernon-
ia, and those living outside the area:
The family of Kris Crowston wish to
send our heartfelt thanks for the many
expressions of love and sympathy dur-
ing our time of grief. We appreciate the
great effort that went into getting the
gym ready, and we thank you. So
many of you provided the delicious
food. The gracious services, kitchen
helpers, and clean up crew will not be
forgotten. The many hugs, kisses, and
tender greetings will always be cher-
ished in our hearts. Though many of
us have moved from Vernonia, we will
be forever Loggers and Vernonians.
May God richly bless each one of you
for your love and generosity. Thank
you from the bottom of our hearts.
