Samuel W Gage II lit a candle

“You are remembered, Don my cousin, as a bright and generous star in our universe. Working with you in my youth was a great experience. Knowing you and your extended family was a joy. Remember when I fell off the round-bale wagon and went under the baler on that hillside near Matthew's house? We all got out, and you laughed the most (but I could tell in your eyes the concern you had). Your love for family and friends was so deep. Rest in Peace.”
