Dear Jerry, Rhonda, and kids, Our hearts go out to you, as you are experiencing such a deep loss. Your mom/grandma has daily impacted your lives for the better, and now you will continue in her steps until that great reunion in heaven. She has inspired us, as well, with such genuine love and friendship shown each Sunday. I also enjoyed working for her and Dan for a short time, which made our friendship even stronger. What a sweetie she was! Our church family appreciates her faithfulness, too! You are in our prayers. Steve and Sandra Vander Molen
