When I got the phone call on Saturday that Uncle Abe passed away. Although, I felt very sad for all of you and your great loss. I couldn’t help, but feel some joy in my heart as I pictured Uncle Abe and Johnny being reunited once again in heaven! I have many fond memories of working with Uncle Abe on the farm and he always had something funny to say! I pray that you feel God’s peace and presence in this difficult time. Praying for you!
Love,
Cindy Rosenberry
