Bob & family,
My deepest sympathies to you. There's a verse I like that I found comfort with...
t will be the little things that you will remember,the quiet moments,the smiles, the laughter.And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories of these little things
that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.

God Bless,
Dawn Johnson (Burrows/ O & M), Arl. Hts, Ill
