Dear Marlow (and MaryAnn), I am sorry to read about your dad's passing. Thinking about him, brought me back to the good ole days at Tyler Field, when your dad would come down to watch you, Pelt, Holub, Van Dyke, Stanis, Rogo,the MacNellis Brothers and the Hammer knock one out of the park. He loved watching all of you guys win(which was helped out by his 1st& 3rd base coaching). And we all loved watching him, enjoy you guys so much! He added a whole 'nother dimension to the game! I will miss him, as I do all of you guys and the good ole days!

Dear Family,
I wish to express my sympathy regarding your loss of Clyde. Our family recently lost our oldest family member. The Bible encourages us to comfort one another. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) Jesus Christ comforted those whom he had not known previously. He brought great joy to families by bringing back to life their loved ones who had died. (John 11:25) Jesus promises that there will be a worldwide resurrection. (John 5:28,29) His loving heavenly Father, Jehovah God states that He will end death, pain, tears and mourning. I hope that my condolence will help your family have a measure of comfort and hope. God cares for you.(1 Peter 5:7)
