So many memories over so many years . . .
Don and Paula were a team – now joined together in Heaven for all eternity.
The sorrow of the faithful is not that of a permanent loss, but the tender sense of sadness, that comes in saying goodbye for now to someone that we love. May today’s sorrows give way to the peace and comfort of God’s love. Sharing in your sorrow with love and friendship. Susanne Zunk
