Dear Chrystal, Derald and all the family,
Our deepest Condolences. Thanks to Derald for informing us the sad news. Even though we knew it would be sometime soon, it was a blow to us too, and we were very deeply saddened! Our hearts go out to you, you who did so much for him; but Chrystal you must rest assured that dad is now in Heaven and that he WILL look after you from where he is with the Lord. So be not afraid! Take Courage, the Lord loves each one of us, He will not forsake us.
And we are here anytime you want to call and chat or if there is anything we can do please do not hesitate to ask. Dad meant so much to us too, and to the Community, and anything we can do to help, we will do our best.
Dad was instrumental in many decisions taken at GOA meetings and he was Chairman of the Board of Trustees for many years; his cool, calm disposition and wisdom brought peace and reconciliation to many heated discussions those days. He will long be remembered!
Much love and in deep sympathy, Edna and Al.
