To Janet and family....I am so sorry for your loss. You were so blessed to have your Dad for so many years. I know that it is still hard to lose a parent but you have many great memories I am sure. I could not be there due to illness and treatments that I am going through but I have had you all in my thoughts and prayers. I love you all.

Janet and family,

My sympathy to you and the family in your loss. It is always hard to give up a parent, even when we know that God knows best. I know that your parents both worked in the Shiloh Church and cemetery. Perhaps pleasant memories will help comfort you in your loss. It was so good that George's Grandson took good care of him for a long time. He will be blessed for his kindness.
