Laura and I traveled and ministered together in Ukraine. The people there loved her and continued asking about her every time I was there. I am jealous that she beat me to Heaven! Heaven is NOT second best.

To Joe & Kathy, Remembering her from our childhood, then again at “Trinity Oaks”, we were again close friends. I really miss her. We ate together twice/day and stayed friends until she got sick, and was sick a long time before she surcommed to the cough that I think caused her to have to go to the hospital, then later to the hospice care. Seemed we couldn’t hear from her, I would hope every day you would come by for some reason and talk to me like you once or twice in the dining room. Oh, well, hoping time is long gone now. Wish I could see you again and talk about people we knew in our earlier lives.
You know you have my sympathy, I hope we will see each other again. Here or in the hereafter.
