Steve, Laura, John and David
I have such wonderful and fond memories of your dad. Whether it was at your house, the Yamin house, prayer meetings, church services, picnics, he was always a joy to be around. It didn´t matter who he was speaking to, that person had his sincere, undivided attention. He had such a gentle and kind way about him. He always had kind words to say, and his love for the Lord and his family was always evident. My mom, especially, was so thankful for his help and direction that he offered when it came to meeting the needs of our brother Paul. He was instrumental in many ways and we all are grateful for that/him.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you navigate through this very difficult season.
Much love,
Anne Yamin Philippi
