"For everthing there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: .. a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance." Ecclesiastes 3:1, 4 We rejoice with Dottie who is in the presence of her dear Savior, and we mourn with you as we feel the great void created by our dear sister's absence. Our prayers continue to be with you, Rollie and family. In Christ's great love, The Shilling Family
