So sorry to hear about Dort. Your Mom was a grand lady. I so much enjoyed how your Father and her raised you all. Your Father used to tell me “they grow so fast!” He was right… Since I will be out of town please accept my condolences.
Dan, Bill and Mary Pat. So sorry for your lose. You were blessed with great parents. There’s never a July 4th that doesn’t remind me of our neighborhood breakfasts on your patio.
“My Deepest Condolences go out to the Turner family, I hope you find comfort in these words, “He will swallow up death forever,……And will wipe away the tears from all faces. Isaiah 25:8. Trust in Jehovah’s promise of the resurrection hope. jw.org
