Dear Donna,Linda,Darrel,Bill & Courtney,
We hold you close to our hearts today. I read my bible after we spoke last evening. ‘Patient in suffering’…how very true of your Daddy.
Death has been swallowed up. Eternally he is with our Lord.
John and I hold you and family in our prayers.
May God comfort you with all that you need in the coming days and weeks.
I shall always remember his big grin…when ever I cam to visit…a big hug and a trip to J&S with dessert.
All our love,
terri,John & Matthew,Alyssa
