Please be assured of my sympathy and prayers for the Haverkamp Family. Losing parents or family members Is always very hard, but losing both parents so close together is especially difficult. Both parents were very good Christian parent in-laws to me, and very good grand parents to our kids and grand kids. I’m praying for Gods comfort and peace that passes all understanding for each Family member.
