Bob, Sharon and Family. I was sad to hear through Carolyn of the death of your father Bud last Sunday. I am sure that the loss will be felt by all who knew him and whose lives have been touched by his presence. It will be a period of mixed emotions I am sure as you make final preparations for the funeral and for the time of sharing that will bring. Be assured of my heartfelt prayers and good wishes to you all at this time. Take hope in the faith you have in a loving God who waits in the next life to greet each soul that is lost to this world. Take in comfort in the knowledge that Bud rests in peace and is with you all in Spirit as you continue in the joys and sorrows of your lives together. God bless you all Andrew.
