Joyce and Sarah, Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you. I will never forget how Dillon said with gusto "Wellll Glory!" I've never forgotten it, nor will I ever forget it. He truly was a servant of God and his faith has been made sight. I hope you can take comfort in the fact that he is with the Lord he loved and the Savior he served. Love, Kim Tweed (and Fred)
