Arleta and family...I just heard the news of your loss. I could always count on a big hug from P.E. everytime I saw him at church. The love he held for others in his heart was obivious. I often had intentions of coming for a visit after I heard about his stroke. Unfortuntately I procrastated and failed to make those visits, and for that I am truly sorry. You were both always so kind to me and I know how much the two of you prayed for us when we faced difficulities. This earth has lost a wonderful man but we all know that heaven has gained what we have lost. I love you all, and I loved P.E.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
