Teresa (TC) and family, I only met your Dad once, but what a presence! It was obvious you and he were the best of friends. I'm sorry for your heartbreak and loss, as I recall you had many wonderful adventures. Prayers for healing of sorrow, and the blossoming of many wonderful memories to replace the emptiness you feel.

Memory takes me back many years to 'Joe's Coffee Cup' on Bank Street In Decatur where I had the pleasure of knowing and loving this precious family. Joe and Letha and their three sons David, Doug, and Mike.
Doug, I'm so sorry for the passing of David. You and your family are in my prayers as you mourn. God bless you all in the days ahead. I pray that you will claim God's promise that "weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning " Psalms30:5b
