    Herk and family,  we are so sorry to hear of Pat's passing.  We know that she is resting in the arms of our Lord Jesus.  We are not able to be with you today as my Pat's sugar is running in the 500's and we are expecting the doctor to put her in the hospital sometime today. May the family be comforted by the friends and their faith.  Prayers for all.  Ed and Pat McLain

    Herk, our deepest sympathy in the loss of your wife, she was always so considerate of all those in the neighborhood.  I still remember the first Verio drive reunion neighborhood party.  The two of you so graciously made it a great time. May her Memory Be Eternal.
