MS. Doris I'm sorry to hear about your Dad. My prayers are with you and your family.
Pat,
I just happened to look on Helena's paper site on the internet and saw your dad had passed away. I am so sorry. I wish I could have been there for you! He was definitely a character. I loved it when he would come to the bank. He always made me laugh. He and your mom are probably somewhere fishing. I'll be praying for you and your family. Love ya! EVA
Praying for you all during your time of loss and grief.
