Hi Alex Thinking of you, buddy. Will try and get to see you @ Hallowell on the 16th. Know that Carolyn and I will miss her terribly–she always had that great, strong wit.
Our best to Heather and Al. Fond memories.

Death cause us much pain, sorrow and emptiness and hardest things to handle. The scripture at Psalms 34 : 18 states : ” Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted, He saves those who are crushed in spirit. ”
Remembering and cherishing the happy times, and the wonderful memories the family made together at first they might be painful, however, those treasures will sustain and comfort your family now, tomorrow and days ahead.
