So sorry for your loss but I know he is with his Lord and Savior having a “Wonderful Time Up There.” Prayers for the family as this is a rough time for all!
I’m so sad that my Uncle passed away. I have so many good memories of him. I start to laugh at some of them. He was a quiet but caring person. I wish I could be at the funeral. When I was young my family would go to garage sales with him and on the way we would stop and pick berries. I remember sitting in the back of his truck with my brother and sister. I love you Uncle Clarence. Happy I got to see you 3 years ago. See you at the pearly gates.I’m praying for all the family.You are now with Aunt Gorgeia and the others. I will miss you.
I am so sorry for your loss..my thoughts and prayers are with all of you and may God comfort you with his loving arms during this time and always.
