I woke up some 77 years ago and God blessed me with such
family members throughout my life. Your father brought his special gifts of life to me and my family. Doris and
I had a very special love for him, your mother, and each one of you -- David - Jan - Joan.
I thank God for
the happy memories and love he and your family gave to me and Doris.
All my love,
Uncle Bruce

Marvin
was one of the first people I regularly played golf with when I first took up the game 10 years ago. Every day on the
links with him was a fond memory I will never forget. His tremendous sense of humor added so much to the enjoyment of
the game. I'll miss him!

I am so sorry for your loss. Psalms 55:22 says: throw your burden upon God and he will sustain you. Never
will he allow the righteous to totter. So, please go to him, in your spare time, and taste and see that he will sustain you,
because he love you and your loved one. I hope these bring you and your family some comfort during the difficult days ahead
and in your time of need.
