Dear Myers Family,
First, let me express my sympathies to you in the passing of your dear family member.
Second, a few years ago I purchased at an auction the William S. Kriebel and Mabel Melcher family Bible. It contains
family data from 1878 to 1966. Surnames
include: Kriebel,Miller,Fulmer,Myers,Stover and others. I would like to see it returned to someone in the family at no charge.

Clarence,
Beulah and I wish you God's grace and comfort over this time. Our lives were enriched by your fellowship. I'm sure Irene is at peace. May we remain faithful and prepared to follow.
Merle and Beulah Cordell
