Charlie/Sandy:
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of your family during this sorrowful time. May God bring you peace and comfort.
Glenn,
Was sad to hear of your dad’s passing. Heard from your pastor that he had a truly wonderful spirit during his suffering. Keep his good spirit in your heart day to day and remember all that he taught you. I lost my Dad several months ago, no easy thing for sure. At least they can continue to watch over and help us from Heaven.
Take care:)
Glenn and Charley, so sorry for the loss of your dad, your families are in our prayers.
The presence of God surround you and give you peace.
Jesus is Lord!
