Hello Randy & Family,
It was with Deep Sorrow that I read of the passing of your Father. Please know that each of you will be in our Prayers during this time of sorrow in your lives. I lost Mother in February 2007 and she also was 91. It does not matter how old they are it is still hard to give them up. May God grant you and your family His peace that passes all understanding.
