Donna, Max and John: i just read of your father's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with all three of you and your families. Since we have lost touch, I didn't know where any of you were and I didn't know that your mother had passed also. God is good all the time and he will help you through your grief and sorrow.

Donna and Max, so sorry for the loss of your Dad. I have great memories of fun times at your home when Bob and I used to come for a visit and we loved your Mom and Dad. They made us feel like your home was our 2nd home. Your Dad was a great guy. Prayers for you and your family.
