Todd & Bryan...you were and are still blessed to have had such loving and beautiful people as Barbara and John as your parents! I know they felt blessed and proud to have you as their sons. The last few years have to have been so challenging in ways no one else could really understand.

I just now heard of Rev. Platts passing and my heart is saddened but know heaven is rejoicing. I have never met a man more special than he was. His love of the Lord and fellowman was so evident in all he did. I was priviledged to have him as interium preacher for over a year and saw first hand a true man of God. He will be greatly missed here on earth because he was truely one of a kind.
