Our prayers are with Betty and her family. I remember the excitement with which Earl told his flying stories to Steve Clary and I one evening. We pray for God's gracious comfort to be yours. You have been such a loving caregiver for so many years.

I'm so sorry to hear of Earl’s passing. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
