Best fun was with Uncles Alfred and Goody boating in the spillway. They were my heroes.

Dear Deborah and Family:
It is times like these that make us aware of how much our loved ones mean to us. May you draw comfort from your fond memories of your dad/grandfather. It is my hope that these memories bring a smile to your heart. In addition, please take comfort in knowing that God is near to all those calling on his name (Psalms 145:18). So during this difficult time, draw close to God, and he will draw close to you (James 4:8).
