Dave and Family
Very sorry to learn about your Dad passing. I know how close you all were and the void left in your family circle. It seems that the heart aches all the more the greater the love you all shared. The fonder the memories - the more he will be missed. That is perhaps the greatest tribute to your Dad. We take consolation that he is now with the God who will be calling us all when He needs us - imagine celebrating Christmas with God !
CIndy and Bryan
