I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing. ​2 Timothy 4:7-8

There is great comfort in knowing that we are not alone during this solemn time. The family would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all those who expressed loving kindness through prayers, cards and other kind deeds.
