There is no kinder or caring Christian than brother Penter. I just have nothing but fond memories of brother Penter. He is the answer to humility and kindness. I enjoyed seeing and being with bother brother and sister Penter. He will be greatly missed. If the world was like him, there would be total peace and honesty.
God bless you sister Penter and all the Penter family.

In Christian Love,
