Home


Hello everyone,

I can't believe I've been home for almost a week now, it has all happened so fast. It was a whirlwind and everything has happened quickly. Many of you probably already know that my grandfather passed away last Friday morning. It was peaceful, and he was ready to go. It's been very difficult on his wife, my grandmother, I know she misses him very much. They were together all the time and didn't do anything without the other. We are praying for strength for her. It's always strange when a big change happens like this, but we hold onto the hope of Heaven and of meeting God face to face!

I want to thank everyone sincerely; you all have been unbelievably kind to my Dad and shown your love by your cards, prayers, and your encouraging words. It has truly helped him to know how many people are there thinking of him and grieving with him. I've felt a peace about being home and being able to visit with family and be able to mourn with them. But we have really experienced what I believe Christ wants for His church, for his Christians, to know that we are all here for each other, even if it's just in thoughts and prayers. Thank you!
