Aunt Grayce, Byron, Bill, & Bruce,
Ashley and I were so sad to hear about Uncle David's death. I will always remember him frying fish for us outdoors at the lake and puttering around in his garden. And I will never forget Christmas Eve at Papa and Mama's, and our Christmas mornings at your house each year--those were such special times! In honor of those Christmas cards from Mama and Papa,we never pass our offering plates in this congregation unless there is $2 in each of them.
He and Dad were so close, and even though his death leaves an emptiness for us here, I like to imagine that they will be spending Christmas together this year.
We were unable to be at the service, but will do our best to see you the week after Christmas.
Keep the faith--you are in our prayers, and we love you all very much!
