  1. Your in our thoughts and prayers.

    What a blessing Uncle Max brought to our family.
    We know, that he is now resting in his Fathers’ arms.

    We never meet our sorrows alone,God is always with us.
    When circumstances get so heavy,
    just lay them at Jesus’ feet. And He will give you peace.

    We love you, and wish we could be there. But please
    know, that we are there in spirit.

    Love,
    Phil & Karen
