Know that we are thinking about your entire family at this difficult time. We loved your Dad and we know he will be greatly missed by many many people. He is in such a beautiful place now and sometimes it is hard to remember that as you grieve. If you need anything other than prayers let us know. I say lets fast forward this entire year. It has been difficult for so many people we know. We love you guys
