Dear Jacqueline - we were so sorry to hear about your Dad. Although we didn't get to know him well, he was always very kind and gracious to us. We'll never forget the last time we saw him and he made us a wonderful Cornish Hen dinner. He loved to entertain and he loved to cook for his family and friends. He was loved by many and his smile and his warm hospitality will be remembered and missed by many! The following is something I learned long ago and I think your Dad might have said something like this to you: "When wealth is gone, little is lost; when health is gone, something is lost; but when character is gone, all is lost." When we have nothing left but God, we discover that God is enough. You and your Mom are always in our hearts and prayers. Love, Uncle Bill & Aunt Patt
