Dear Family, My thoughts and prayers are with you today. I visited with Diane today and she told me about your father. He was a very loving caring man who took great delight in his family. May God bless you in your time of grief and the Holy Spirit who is our "Comforter" comfort you now. Sincerely, JUNIA
