Arrangements

For those who have asked via email or voice mail...

Dad's viewing will be Thursday, August 2 from 2 - 8 at my church, Jerome Christian Church, and Friday, August 3 from 10 - 11 AM. His funeral will also be at the church at 11 AM on Friday.

Directions from 31 (Kokomo) to the church:
Turn on Markland (which is also 22 and 35) like you are going to Walmart (east). Go through the light at SR 19 and through the ONE stop light in Greentown...yep, we're proud of only one light, too! :) You'll pass streets like Indiana, Hunt, and Cobalt. The next one is SR 213 and Maple Street in Greentown. Turn South (right) and go one mile to 100 S. Turn left. About a mile down the road you will come to my church. It will be on your right.

Thanks!

MICHELLE,

I KNOW THAT TOMORROW WILL BE A TOUGH DAY, AS WILL THE FUNERAL AND THE COMING DAYS.

I JUST WANT TO SHARE SOME MEMORIES THAT I HAVE OF YOU AND YOUR DAD. I THINK OF THE SONGS "ON THE JERICHO ROAD", "NOW LET US HAVE A LITTLE TALK WITH JESUS", AND "LEARNING TO LEAN".

YOU AND YOUR DAD SANG "GIVE THEM ALL" AT MY DAD'S FUNERAL. YOU WERE IN 2ND GRADE, AS MY DAD DIED MY JUNIOR YEAR IN COLLEGE. THE SONG GOES: "ARE YOU TIRED OF CHASING PRETTY RAINBOWS, ARE YOU TIRED OF SPINNING ROUND AND ROUND. WRAP UP ALL THE SHATTERED DREAMS OF YOUR LIFE, AND AT THE FEET OF JESUS LAY THEM DOWN."

ROGER, AND OUR 2 CHILDREN HAVE PRAYED FOR YOUR FAMILY OFTEN THIS PAST MONTH. I ACHE AT THE LOSS YOU ARE FEELING, HAVING SPENT MUCH TIME WITH YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY AS YOU WERE GROWING UP. YOUR FAMILY WAS LIKE RELATIVES TO US!

PLEASE KNOW THAT YOUR DAD BEGAN IMPACTING PEOPLE AS A TEACHER BACK AT TIPTON HIGH SCHOOL WHERE I WAS A FRESHMAN IN 1977. YOU RODE THE TEAM BUS WITH US AS HE DROVE TO OUR AWAY GAMES. HE LEFT A LEGACY OF ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO GIVE TO OTHERS, STAND UP FOR GOD, AND DO YOUR BEST.

YOUR FAMILY IS SPECIAL, GOD LOVES YOU, AND REMEMBER THAT MANY OTHERS ARE HURTING WITH YOU!

WE LOVE YOU ALL!
