Condolence: Jeff and Julie, My deepest condolences to you. Your father was always a great role model to me. I can still see his broad smile while sitting in the congregation. It was his smile that encouraged me and made it easy to relax and calm any jitters I may have had any time I had to be up front to do anything during the church service. After the service, I knew I could count on him coming and saying some kinds words to encourage me to continue to serve our Lord during church services. I remember as a teen joking about his long opening prayers during the Sunday School hours. Now I realize how they impacted and help teach me to pray to our Lord deep from within myself. It was always obvious to me that his love for the Lord was real and not just for show. I know you have the assurance of seeing him again; yet it is still not easy to say goodbye while we are on this earth. My prayers will be with you through out the upcoming weeks as you adjust to this loss of your Father and friend. With my love and sympathy, Robin Haley
