    Davena and David, your father brought much happiness to my wife (his sister) Ruth’s and my lives, and we enjoyed many visits in his home. He is now in the presence of our Savior, The Lord Jesus, and is enjoying being reunited with his wife, sister and parents. My heart goes out to both of you in your sadness.
