Debby & Family,
My heart and prayers go out to you and your family in this time of grief. No words can ever replace the loss of losing the ones we love. Although I never knew him personally, It is not hard to see the type of love your father gave and showed to you all. I know he will be missed, but he is also listening to that Big band that the Lord has playing for him now as he welcomes him into his loving arms! God Bless you all!
