Dear Alex, brother and friend, we will always remember warmly the many years of family times, special occasions, and so many memories shared with you. We will sadly miss you, but are happy to know that you accepted the gift of salvation in Jesus Christ as He paid for all of our sins on the cross. Because of that, we can look forward to being with you again in heaven. We love you!
Norman and Carol (I Thess. 4:16-18)
