Bill, Joe, John and families,
Our sympathies to you with the loss of your wife, and mother, and grandmother. I remember the fun times we had when Ron and I were just dating and then as newlyweds when we were together. You boys were just little tykes and your folks were generous enough to accept me into the family. It was a good time for me to get to know the Yeager family. Pearl always had a good meal to share and fun conversation. Our prayers for family and friends to support you and God’s grace to hold you and comfort you.
