Dear Jon, Mark, Martha, Ruth and family,

It was such a shock to hear of Uncle Dick's sudden passing. He was a man of strong faith and love. He had been so helpful to us during some very difficult times during the past 3 years. We so enjoyed our many visits with him via phone, in person, and his e-mails from wherever he was during his travels. He was always concerned for us. Words cannot express our appreciation to him. He spoke fondly of all of you often, and was so proud of all the grandchildren.We all share in your grief. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely, Claudia, Scott, Eric, David & Rebecca Lunt
