Mom, Thank you for everything that you have done for me. I am eternally grateful & blessed to have had the privilege to be raised by the two of you. In reflecting all the influence you both had was shaping me into the man I am today. I thank God everyday since dads passing that he gave me the time to fall back in love with dad, & that we were able to enjoy several years of that bond before his passing. I understand the confusion, why all the prayers and hands laid on dad for healing didn't seem to produce the results we were expecting. God’s ways are not our ways. His thoughts are not our thoughts, but take comfort in knowing that dad & you & Sandy have said the prayer that guarantees everlasting life. Our family reunion is planned in which we just don't have a date for yet. I know that we all can gain comfort from knowing that dad is playing pinochle with Gramma and she is still kicking his butt, and that they are laughing and rejoicing and waiting on us. Love Michael
