I’m so sorry that I missed your Dad’s service. He was one of my good buddies at the senior center, & we already miss him so much! He always had little pearls of wisdom, a humorous quip, and what a giving heart!-he loved surprising us with his homemade cookies, or banana bread. I pray for God’s comfort for you all. God bless, Cheryl Kelly
