So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4
(3) "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. (4)
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".

Lois and I were so sorry to hear of D.W’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Reading Rev. 21:3, 4 and John 5:25 have always brought me comfort, and hopefully will do the same for you.

Lora and family, I am so sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. He was a good Christian man and I enjoyed working with him, as you could always depend on him being at work, no matter the weather conditions. He was very proud of you and your family. I will not be able to attend the service as I am going to visit with Justin and his family, but you will be in my prayers. May God bless you during this time.

We are so saddened by this loss. Please know that you all are in our prayers. D.W. was a quiet person who made his life purpose known not in words but in actions as he took care so well of his mother, his wife, his daughter, and grandchildren, and his community. He will be missed.
