I am so sorry to hear about Mun's death. He was always smiling with his whole heart and with his twinkling blue eyes. I never talked with him that I didn't feel blessed to have been in his presence. He always told me how much he loved me and my family. Please know that he will always have a special place in my heart and that he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
