Brother Madden: I was saddened to hear of the loss of your dear wife Erma. You both have been faithful to each other, your family, church family and friends and a great example of Christ-likeness (holiness).
I hope to see you soon and be assured I, Carmen, and Miamisburg Nazarene are here for you in the future.
God bless and comfort you my brother!
