"The tide recedes, but leaves behind bright seashells on the sand. The sun goes down, but gentle warmth still lingers on the land. The music stops, yet echoes on in sweet, soulful refrains. For every joy that passes, something beautiful remains."

Such a gentle man and his family who started out as being just "my neighbors," but rapidly grew to become so much more to me and my kiddos. Words cannot express my sorrow for the loss of such a great man at such an untimely age. Claire and Ade know that our prayers and love are with you both and, it is with deep regret we are unable to be there during this time.
