I remember when I first moved next door. He followed Jesus's instructions on who is your neighbor. He welcomed me and my wife with with love and acceptance. The first thing he said to me was "Lil brother if there's anything you need don't hesitate to ask. I love you. " Loved our fishing and boating excursion. Me being from the city and all. Thanks brother for the lessons, God knew who I needed. Thank you Lord, you always provide. Rest well my dear brother.

Met Dan at church in a single adult Bible study. I remember his sense of humor and the time he let me drive his Mustang as fast as I wanted. I was newly divorced when I met him and jaded towards men. I will say God put my friend in my life to show me that men can be good. Esther I am here to be a listening ear or shoulder to cry on. I know Dan is in Heaven free from pain and rejoicing with Jesus.
