Ruth and Kathy,
Sharing your sorrow at the loss of your precious Mother and my beloved friend Bernie. It was a great honor to be called to care for her in the many months before her passing. I cherish the times the Lord gave us to enjoy our fellowship and pray together. I wish it would have been longer, but I will hold it dear always. Holding your hearts in Jesus.
In His Service...

My heart goes out to your family. your mother & father were a large part of my life growing up working in the greenhouse. I am glad I was able to spend sometime with your mother last year. She knew that she had a blessed life and family. She will surely be missed by all that know her.
