GUESTBOOK

I just read of the passing of your dear Dad, Alan. I am of undeniable knowledge, that your Dad has passed to the arms of Jesus. I know Alan missed the care n love of Bonnie, His dear wife. I thank you Paul and your close family, for your love, care and responsibilities to see that Alan's needs were met. We knew Alan n Bonnie for over 40 years in adult Sunday school. Jim and I, enjoyed many outreach programs and projects from Liberty and several vacations together. I am so very sorry that I cannot attend Wednesday's service memorial. I will be out of town; but I'll whisper a "HALLELUJAH " and a AMEN too for the "good race Alan took " right into his Savior's arms. -Marianne Davison
