To the Malpass Family,
May God always bless your family during this time of sadness but we can be overjoyed that if we truly love the Lord we will be reunited with our loved ones. I worked with your family at Sears for many years and feel that I was truly blessed in knowing him. I always found him to be kind, compassionate and a very great salesman.
God Bless,
