We are praying that you will be strengthened and encouraged by God's Word: He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. We met Bob as an Electrician at JSU around 1970 or before. We met Jennet through Sandy McCall and we did some serious card playing back in the day. The memories of both (their humor) causes us to smile. May God richly bless you, Fran and Ledora Bridges, and our sister in Heaven: Berniece
