Never Forgotten
He touched so many hearts. Lifted so many spirits. Created strong individuals. Without him our hearts would be lost. It was an honor to have this man as my father. I'm so grateful to have known what a pure human heart was.

The God of all comfort is close to the brokenhearted and He has great compassion for those who are experiencing deep pain caused by grief (Psalms 34:18).
