David and I enjoyed Ken and Elsie so much in our small group during our days at Northwest Bible Church, meeting at Lloyd and Naomi Johns home. We could not remember if it was in the 80's or 90's. We had sweet times together, and that is not only talking about the desserts! David loved Elsie's taco salad at potluck dinners too. They brought their granddaughter Alyssa to church with them sometimes on babysitting weekends and she was able to become a life-long friend with our daughter. How wonderful to be blessed with such friends!!!

Duane:
Sorry to learn of your father's passing. I know you miss your Dad as I miss mine. Dads are special. That's why God only gives one to a customer. Sandy and I will be praying for you.

What a gentle and kind person he was! And we appreciated knowing him and his wife so much during our years at Ft. Worth Bible Church in the mid 1970s.
