Dear Heidi, I am very sorry for your loss. Extend my sympathy to Eric, please. I still see him as a handsome 5 year old entering kindergarten. No matter what the age or years that have passed it is still difficult to lose a dad. Thinking of you all, prayerfully. Camille Marten

Heidi, so sorry for your loss. I just passed my 75th. birthday last Wednesday and it seems like all I am doing anymore is mourning the passing of others. It is especially hard to see people younger than myself pass.
