How glorious these passed few days must be for Irvin...free of any illness and resting in the Lord's precious arms. I remember Irvin as a kind and thoughful person. When he would come to Watertown, SD he would always make a point of visiting my mom, Babe Young. He was one of the good guys.
My condolences to you Anne and your family.
