Dear Judy, I am so very sorry for your loss of your dear husband...I can't imagine what you're feeling right now, but know that for Allyn, it is, indeed, "absent from the body is present with the Lord"...I pray for God's ever present grace, faith, peace
& comfort for you during these future days...I was a patient at Dr. Postema & Weigle's office, and you were always the most kind, caring & compassionate nurse ever....Thinking of you, with love and prayers..
