Amazing Family

May the grace and mercy of the Father, love unending love of the Son, and the comfort of the Holy Spirit be with you all during these days of mourning. But may that same Spirit bring you fond memories of a life well lived and a blessed legacy of a family connected to Jesus because of this man.
