Dear Emily-This goes back a LONG way, I remember him and you from my days with the Salem Singers. My condolences to you and your family. The older we ALL get, Willard singing "What A Day That Will Be" seems to have more meaning, Sincerely-Jim Newberry

Our condolences to the Art and Emily Friesen family. Our friendship goes back to 1965 when we first started attending Salem Alliance Church. Our lasting impression of Art and Emily is that they were the "handsomest couple we ever knew". Their lives and faithfulness testified to their strong belief in God and because of this we know Art's life has not ended it has just been Changed.
