A Wonderful Man

This is a picture of Melody with her Uncle Bruce. A little while ago I had mentioned that he was not doing well. He passed away last Friday and tomorrow is his funeral. He was 89 years old and lived a wonderful life. He really was a terrific individual. He had a special way of doing so many little things that brought so much joy to our lives. Even though we will miss him greatly we rejoice in the fact that he is in Heaven now and that someday we will see him again. Melody will be giving a tribute to him and I have been asked to officiate at the service and at the graveside which is a huge honor for me. Please remember us in your prayers and our plans have changed a little bit as we will not be getting away to Calgary. That will have to wait until another time
