Members of Joe and Jackie Ball family.
What a spiritual legacy your Mom and Dad left you to carry. They loved God and served Him with such passion. They were some of the most precious people in our congregation at Bethel.
My love and prayers to all of you.

Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints. Keep that verse in your hearts. He ran the race & finished the course! He heard, "Well done, good & faithful servant."
May God give all of you (children, grand-children, & greats) comfort during this time. It is cuz of Hope in the LORD, we can rejoice. God's love & grace will carry you.

Dennis, and your sisters. I knew your dad many years ago as he coached the church boys softball team. I umpired many of the games and greatly admired your dad for his great Christian character. He was an ideal leader for the boys and showed he really loved them. Because he was a true gentleman, I really enjoyed working those games with him. Rightly proud you should be. Bill Goodwin
