Dear David & family:
Your Dad was a wonderful man and a good Uncle. I remember him well and I know he will be missed. I loved his humor and his voice. I wish I could have visited with him but know that I thought of him often and kept him in my prayers, as I do you, your wife and children. Love, your cousin, Kimberly Bailey-Elfersy
