When the multitudes came you went for more food, No one ever left without food. For you we know the kingdom of heaven is yours. Of course you had to tell St. Peter to wait a little longer for thier were more hungry that needed food and you waited until dinner for our unknown guests were ready before you would join him. Of all the things God asked us to do on this earth we believe you have done them all. Your kindness was never ending, and to you we owe the very breath that our son takes. You are already greatly missed by our family and everyone who knew you. Allen, dinner is about 5:oo P.M. and there is always a place set for you, and all your airline tales for we feel Ester meant for the girls to look after you and the boys to keep you laughing as you continue the task God has planned for you.
