Teresa, you and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers during the last few weeks. I’ve reminisce much about living in Portsmouth, about football games in our back yard and special Christmases. May our Heavenly Father manifest Himself in love and grace. I myself have found great comfort in remembering His invitation to “Cast all your care upon Him for He cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7) Doug Dickerson
