Dick and Pat mean a great deal to my family. They were faithful friends. They reminded us of the hands and feet of God. That has nearly been 40 years, but I am grateful for the witness. May God's people wrap their arms around Pat and the family in the days ahead. May we live in Dick's path until that day when we see him again.

I am saddened to hear the loss of Charles. I wanted to extend my deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Acts 17:31 "Because he has set a day on which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness... and he has provided a guarantee to all men by resurrecting him from the dead.”
Something that gives us great comfort is the Bible truth that death is not the dot or period at the end of a sentence, but rather the comma or pause because our dear loved ones will live again. We know that we will see our loved ones again because the beautiful promise recorded at Revelation 21:4 "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." What a truly special day so close at hand to be able to embrace our loved ones again!
