Dear Pat & Family,

My mother just informed of your father's passing. Pat, I am so sorry to hear it. I really liked your father so much. I can remember your father giving us a ride in the airplane. He inspired me to have a great love of aviation. My prayers are with you and your family.

To Family and Friends, loved ones will be brought to life again here on earth, instead of announcements that people have died, joyful reports will tell of those who have been brought back to life. What a joy it will be to welcome loved ones back from the grave!
