Mary,
My family is sorry to hear about the loss of Michael. I have so many fond memories growing up of him & my dad (Tom Oben) . All there beagle adventures. From rabbit hunting to swapping dogs back in the day. I had a wonderful phone conversation last summer with him about my dad. He brought me to tears. He will be missed. ❤

I am very sorry to hear of the loss of Brother Lane. Even though I did not know him personally, it was encouraging to read that he served the congregation faithfully for over 40 years. I hope the words of Malachi 3:16 bring you comfort knowing that Jehovah has a book of remembrance for those fearing Jehovah and for those meditating on his name.

I don't ever remember a time that he wasn't smiling, laughing, cracking jokes and just being encouraging to ever one. He loved his family so much and he always referred to Mary as his queen and...
