I was so sorry to learn of Mr. Chichwak's passing. I enjoyed our conversations when I delivered meals to him over the past several years. He never failed to have a positive outlook on the day. My deepest condolences to the family.

Sorry to hear of Bill's passing, I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.
