It won't be the same without Ben Jr. He was a good man and loved his family. He always kept family gatherings lively. So, I'm doing as the Christ told us. At Mt. 6:10 he tells us to pray for God's Kingdom to come, his will be done on earth as it is in heaven. I'm so looking forward to seeing Ben Jr. again in PERFECT health when Jehovah's Kingdom comes!

Praying for you all in the coming days and weeks/ months ahead. Uncle Ben will be truly miss. Love you all more than you will ever know. To Pam, his sister praying for you as well.
