Ben & Family--

My prayer is for your strength in knowing that your father [Mr. Whitfield] is now at peace; his suffering is over. Your times spent with him are as cherished memories.

As others, you, too, will sorely miss him—a dear, dear friend.

May the peace of God be with you and yours during this time.
