To Diane: 'Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. ' Who. knew that. Seymour and I talked on Sunday at Church and did our usual 'mortuary greeting ' that it would be the last time we would actually see each other and the next time I would view him.Although we don't understand. God's plan we have to trust Him.Hold on to your faith. Love you.
