He loved his church family namely Al and Barb Goss, John Bevard, Pastor Les and so many others we wish to name but it would be so long of a list, who walked their faith out by visiting him and building the new wheelchair ramp he did not get to use. But was so looking forward to getting out again. He was called home by the Lord and our mother because it was time ”he got home”. His memory will be held dearly in our hearts. The many neighbors who loved and cared for him since he moved there in the early 1950s.
