THANK YOU

We really appreciate the many cards and verbal expressions of sympathy many of you have showered upon us. The deaths of my eldest brother Willis and my eldest sister Clara did not come as a surprise, but more like a relief, knowing that their suffering had ended and now they are truly enjoying life hereafter free from all the aches and pains and troubles that life here on earth entails. We really appreciate the fact that our care group donated 20 Gideon Bibles in Willis’ and Clara’s memory. Pray that the recipients of those Bibles will come to a saving faith as a result.

Thank you very much, fellow Hope CRC members! John & Sherry Kooiker
