Nancy,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Gladstone was always so very friendly and kind to me and my family. I know mom and dad always enjoyed your all's friendship over the years down at The Greens in Melfa. Mom passed away in the spring of 2014 and dad died in the fall of 2015.

This is Greg Shreaves, Sherwood and Mary's son. I retired from parish ministry last April and am living in south FL now.

Peace be with you,
Greg Shreaves

Dear Nancy,
It was with great sadness that I learned of Gladstone's passing. He was much more like a brother to me than a cousin. I will miss him even though I didn't see him very often, he was always on my mind.Thinking of you.
Love
Emily

To the family, I am sorry to hear the news about your loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this challenging time. Isaiah 61:1,2*

Nancy, Barbara, Frank and Bev,
Bob and Evelyn and I miss Gladstone already. He always had a sweet smile and a kind word. He was a force to be delt with on his scooter as he whizzed about The Chesapeake delivering tax info, or heading to appointments here and there. We also loved his insightful comments in our ABF class at Liberty Baptist. He knew his Bible and God's Heart! Gladstone loved our Lord, and served Him to his last breath. We were blessed to spend time with him these last days. Gladstons's visits to Evelyn's bedside were weekly blessings. And Nancy, you both have been great examples of a lasting Christian marriage-a rare blessing ! He was a gentleman to the end, with unwavering faith in Jesus, his Lord and Savior. He now stands with his friend Jesus and the great cloud of witnesses cheering us on to finish well for Christ !!
We will hold you close in prayer.
Much love, Bob, Libbo, and Evelyn Hall
