I am so very sorry for your loss. I know it is a time to rejoice and to celebrate his entrance in to heaven, however, I do know how hard it is to say goodbye, if only for a while. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers. So sorry I was not able to attend the service. I was out of town, but had you all in my thoughts and prayers. May God continue to help you through this difficult time.

Charlotte and Family,
I want to send you my deepest heartfelt sympathy. We heard that Elmer had passed away.
We know that it is unbearable sometimes but then we have to also realize that they are happy in god's hands
and wish for us to be happy for them also.
We are sorry that we won't be able to be with you for his services but just know that we are there for him in spirit and love.
We loved him and know that someday we will all be together. You and your family...

I went to Valley with Elmer & Gilbert and am very saddened to hear of his passing. He was a gentle soul. His niece, Felicia used to hang out at the house with my kids. My prayers are with all of his family, but know that he is now watching over you all from above. God bless you all. Louisa
