Personal note

The family would like to acknowledge the outpouring of love through thoughts , prayers, hugs, flowers, cards, phone calls, emails and text messages from all of you. Living in Illinois, Florida, Indiana and New Jersey, has given us so many wonderful friendships, that we treasure even though we may not speak to you daily or in some cases…years. It’s an example of the brotherhood that we have as servants of Jehovah. Proverbs 17:17 expresses it clearly in saying: “A true friend shows love at all times, and is a brother born for times of distress.” We thank you again for your friendship and expressions of love.
