Dear Aunt Hilda, Patty, Susie, John, Joey, Danny, Tim and all of your family,
I am so saddened at the passing of Uncle Earl. I am praying for the comfort of Jesus to envelope you in the days and all times ahead. I know you all have great memories and lessons learned from him. What a legacy of love, Aunt Hilda!
My favorite thing that I have told my kids and grandkids about Uncle Earl is the tenderness he showed me when my dad died. We were around our kitchen table and he was sitting while I stood. He pulled me down on his lap and put his strong arms around me and gave me comfort. No words were said or needed. I felt it and it has lasted all through my life. I still feel it when I think of him. Hold fast to your memories and receive comfort from them and from our Savior, Jesus. I love you all and am praying for you.
