On your dad's passing...
Becky, just wanted to convey my sympathy in the passing of your dad. I always enjoyed talking with him! He was such a "people person!" Whenever my dad would be late coming out from church Sunday mornings, we knew there was a good chance that it was because he was off in a corner yakking with your dad!
To Dick's family
I 'd like to convey my sympathy to Dick's family. A late change of plans will prevent me from attending his funeral. I met Dick about 15 years ago when my wife of six months and I began to attend CMBC. At the time I was working at Thomson, his last employer. That was a commonality between us and it was always good to talk with him about that and how he had shared his faith over the years. I still have a laminated card in my wallet that he gave to me that has a few verses on one side and The Apostle's Creed on the other side. In the last 15 years, it seems that the tempo of life has increased and there is never enough time for family and friends. Perhaps that will be rectified in eternity.
Hi Beck.
