Barb & Family,

We are going to miss our neighbor Don. We will just be across the beautiful field if you ever need us. I will look after my side of the fence.##imported-begin##Beth Krisatis and Family##imported-end##

I'm thankful to you grandpa for helping to teach me many valuable life lessons. You helped me to learn the value of hard work and providing for a family no matter what, even if times are tough. I may not have appreciated these lessons when I was younger, but I value them now. I remember once at an assembly, you stopped to say hello while I was trying to put one of my girls to sleep. You mentioned that it's tough some times to be at meetings and assemblies with kids, but you were proud to see us there. And even if we had to miss a lot of the talks, at least we were there and that's what's important. You mentioned how you had to do that with all of your kids, and I'm thankful you did so I have a spiritual minded mother today. Thanks for all you taught me. I look forward to working hard with you in the new system when we are both vibrant and young and have all the energy and health we need to make this earth a paradise.##imported-begin##Jason Rogers##imported-end##

I have known your family for as long as I can remember. I will always remember working in the cafeteria at Holt, hayrides, and square dancing when I think of Bro Gifford. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time. I so look forward to the new world when we will see all of our loved ones again.
Much Love,
Melissa##imported-begin##Melissa Johnston##imported-end##
