Dear Nita and Family, Please look to the hills from whence all of your help and comfort will come. The Board of Directors, Executive Director, Martha Zuniga and Education Director, Cynthia Bunton Gonzales of South Texas Family Planning & Health Corporation, extends our deepest sympathy and prayers of encouragement during this time of life reflection. What a blessed man Mr. Boyce was to have had you as his wife. A woman devoted to family, community, education, and most of all, your husband. The Corpus Christi community is saddened by the loss but confident of this one thing, the journey you made together was a light to many people. Your devotion and dedication as a wife and mother was always your priority. May the Lord grant you strength to carry on day by day. You have been the difference in the lives of many children, parents, educators and families throughout the coastal bend area and not to mention all over the state. Thank you for your leadership as President of the Health Education Advisory Council. You are appreciated. We are praying for you for you and your family. Just remember our Father in heaven, will never put more on you than you can bear. Very sincerely, The Health Education Advisory Council
