I have read, that earth has no sorrow that heaven can't heal. I have faith that this is true. I know that one day the pain of your passing won't hurt my heart like it is today. I love you, my little brother, rest with God and I will see you later. always Lois

My father was a true soldier.He endured so much in his life. He had saying like don't take wooden nickels. He also said life is what you make it. I realize how important those two simple sayings are now. Daddy I will hold you in my heart always.

I will always remember when you held our son for the first time The memories I have with you will never be forgotten. RIP May God Give This Family Strength And Comfort. I Love You All

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
