The world understands the Gospel when it sees and feels it. Anyone in the presence of my father could attest to the fact that he was like a lighthouse(powerful & safe & well grounded) My Poppa was a temple of The Holy Spirit~ Love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control came to fruition in his life. May I give all glory honour and praise to Our Heavenly Father for blessing humanity with the earthly existence of my excellent Poppa.
Love Forever & Always,
Ruthy

Dear Eileen and family,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I just happened to glance at Sunday's obituaries today and was saddened to see Kenny's picture there. I know Mom (Ethel) had a special connection with Kenny and his family and I feel a loss for her, even though she is no longer with us.
I have always remembered his visits to our place when I was a young girl. He would come in his police uniform. He was so tall and imposing and I felt that I had to be on my best behavior. I was impressed by his big black shinny boots, his gun and holster, and police hat. He had such a soft voice and big smile that I could never imagine him getting angry with anyone and wondered how he every arrested anyone.
May the Lord bless you and keep you, may His face shine upon you, and give you peace.
