Dear Family, I am so sad to hear of the passing of Pastor P. He was a wonderful man with a gentle heart. He always gave in to Lisa and I, after we wore him down. I have so many fond memories of church and staying at your home. I pray for comfort and peace during this time for you. God Bless, Nicole.
