I wish I could have been there to celebrate your life today. I’m so thankful for all the years when you would come up to stay with us at Christmas and the summer. Your class, wit, and love of God is what I will remember most about you. I love you.
I miss you every day and thank God that he gave you to us as a gift of his grace. I remember all of the games we used to play together and chatting with you as a young child for hours on end. You were always patient and gracious with all of us.
One day we will celebrate together with our Lord, without sadness and in the perfect glory of our heavenly Father.
Until then,
Kevin
