Back Words of Comfort
| Tue, Nov 16, 2010 | Our prayers are
with you in this very sad time. Your dad loved each of you.
He was proud of his parents, brothers, sisters, and nieces and nephews.
I felt I knew each of his children. He dearly love you and your
children! When I did
his family history for him as a present -- he was so appreciative. He
wanted to pay me -- but I told him that he had paid his dues to all of
us in full -- by being a soldier.
