Gail, little did we realize this would happen so suddenly when I spoke with you last week. So sorry for the loss of your a Dad I recall good memories of activities in the church and the fun we had with both your Mom and Dad. He made my life a lot more pleasant the many times he did repairs for us!

So sorry for your loss. Donna and Clifford were so very helpful when we went to the store , they would always help us to understand how to fix something or grow crops or whatever. They always felt like family and treated everyone as such. We will not forget all they have done for our community. Truly a blessing!
