What fun we had at Grandpa and Grandmas farm on holidays! He was so proud of his kids and so happy with his life. Always a smile/ We are getting older – surprising us all! But we are so lucky to have all the cousin memories that we do. Love to all – will be thinking of you. This is when it is really hard to be so far way.
He was such a wonderful nephew to my grandpa Joe. They visited all the time along with my mom and dad, Curt and gail. He was such a giving man.

I am very sorry to hear about Lorels passing. I would like to extend some words of comfort to his family. God promise to soon “swallow up death forever” and “wipe away the tears from all faces” (Isahia 25:8) after this he opens we will be reunited with our loved ones we have lost in death once again. Hold on to these promises and the beautiful memories you share of Lorel. I will include you in my prayers, Amaury.
Sylvia so sorry for your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time
