Gail,
Although I never got a chance to meet your father, I knew him through you. Be assured that God knew best (although you might not be able to see it now). Cherish your father’s memories. He would want that. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Glenn and family,
So sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one. I know how hard it is to lose someone you love. I remember your dad well from all those years at DPW, Ft Hood. There are lots of memories from working with him. He was a good person and I know he will truly be missed. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. May God comfort you and give you peace in your hearts.
A Friend,
Martha Howe
