Dear Family of Henry Emmert, especially Konrad whom I know the best, I want to add a word to the beautiful Eucharist we had at Goodwin House this afternoon. I was moved by your tribute, and very grateful to hear it. I have lovely-and sometimes humerous-memories of your dad. He is now enjoying the fullness of life with God and the Saints and Angels-a life we are incapable of imagining at our stage of existence. May you be comforted in knowing he and Fanny are in total bliss-as we all will be finally! "For all the Saints" is my favorite hymn. Wonderful to sing it today. I especially am always wowed by verses 7 and 8-the final glorious day for all humanity. Very best wishes and continuing prayer for the whole family. Barbara Bishop
