Please accept our sincere condolences. We know during this very difficult time, it is important to have comfort and hope. This can be found in God's word the Bible at Acts chapter 24 and verse 15. It gives the hope of a bright future.

To Eva and family, my prayers are with you all at this time. I work for BJ for a number of years in the Technical Division. A wonderful man of faith and one of the best managers the division ever had. I always enjoyed talking with him and listening to stories about "Eva". It was refreshing because I could hear the love and pride in his conversations about her and his family. 85 years. He was always concerned that his brothers had a history of short life spans and would he follow that legacy. But look how God blessed you all with his longevity. I will not be able to attend his service, because of a previous meeting in Cincinnati, but just know that I was blessed to have had BJ in my life.

Sincerely,
Jeanette Langford
