Dear Edith and Dot, we wish that we were nearer to Asheville on these occasions. We treasure our short visit with Robbie several years ago. We wish that we had kept closer to the Freeman family.
I was surprised at Robbie’s age, but should not have been. There is a great hymn in many of our hymnals that goes ‘For all the saints, who from life’s labor rest!’ We all long for that rest for ourselves. We send you our love, Don & Ina Freeman
