Frances Work lit a candle

“It is with a heavy heart that I offer prayers for you, Dear Jeannie, on the loss of your father, and to sweet Shane, on the loss of your grandfather. I can only imagine what a giant of a man he was because of the legacy he has left this world with his family and friends. May Jesus comfort all those remaining with broken hearts, but may God touch each and everyone of you with peace knowing Karl is in eternal bliss in heaven.
