Denise, I just learned of your fathers passing. He was a great man and always kind to me and my family. I have many fond memories of working for your dad on the farm. He always managed to make us laugh no matter how tired we were from throwing hay all day long.
I'm sure he is in heaven standing around some barn drinking beer with my father.I will keep you and your Dad in my prayers.May he rest in peace.

May Jack's family and friends be comforted by God's promise to "swallow up death forever, and wipe away every tear from all faces."
(Isaiah 25:8) Remembering too the promise of the Resurrection hope for both the Unrighteous and Righteous. (Acts 24:15)

Just want to send my sympathies to each of you. Was sorry to read about Jack in the paper.
Did not realize he was in Norwich Rehab. Hard to believe Eileen has been gone almost 8 years. Blessings, Mary
