Lisa and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember your Dad when we were little growing up in Oakwood. We had some good times at your grandparents house! My Dad worked with your Dad many years ago and he is the one who forwarded me this link. I just lost my Mom last year ,so I can understand your grief. Take care and God Bless.

To the Conover family,
I just wanted to say that your dear love one will be miss by everyone. However, Jehovah God will soon get reid of sickness and death forever. Have you ever wondered: Why we grow old and die? God and Jesus know the answer to this question very well. Meanwhile, we must have hope that we will see our dear love ones again in paradise. Take care and may the family search for God to help them thru the pain that they are feeling from this great lost at this time.
