I've really enjoyed getting to know your Dad in the past few years. We always had really good talks. Reminded me of my grandparents that raised me. They don't make people like them anymore. He will be missed. I will always be here for you Scott.

Amy & Scott - I have fond memories of your Dad. He used to talk to Matt about the Chiefs as he ushered people up for communion. May you find comfort in God's word. I am out of town and not able to make it to the service.

Scott & Amy and families, my heart breaks for you. Knowing he is no longer suffering calms my heart and I hope that part eases your pain as well. Hugs to you all!
