Walter what is a dear friend of mine. He seemed his happiness at his camp on Chemo Pond in Maine. I loved hearing about his experiences at Molly molasses children's camp as a child and then later has a counselor. I will miss him and pray for him and his family.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there is a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
