Dear Willa,
I just learned of George's passing and am sorry for your loss. I have such fond memories of you and George from when you were interning at Bethany in Kalamazoo. So many years have passed but I thank God that he put you in my and my parents' lives, if even for a short time. It was always good when we would run into each other over the years.

Sincerely
Carol Zomer-DeRuiter

My condolences to the family and especially, my special friend and former camper, Tina Schaver. Rejoice, your uncle is with the Trinity and many family members and friends. Shalom.
