Marc and Rhonda Just wanting to let both of you know we will keep you in our prayers.Your Dad was a good person.
My deepest condolences to your family. Losing a loved one is never easy. As you continue in life keep the wonderful words found at Revelations 21:4 with you and hold dear the thought found in Isaiah 25:8. No, I can not bring your loved one back but I hope that the comfort in knowing that God not only wants to but will is encouraging in itself. – Acts 24:15. Again, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Ashley
My condolences to your family. I'll remember Ron fondly as he was the one who taught me how to assemble Swagelok actuators at Accurate Metal. May he rest in peace. Sincerely, Steve Appeldorn
