Dear Sister Papke, Jill, Jeff & Family:
So sorry to hear about the passing of your husband and father. He is a great man and we have a great love for him and all of you. You were such good friends and neighbors to us. Thanks for all your kindness. May the good Lord bless and comfort you. The gospel is such a wonderful thing. Don't know what we would do without that knowledge that we will all be together again in the wonderful hereafter.
Sincerely,
Terrell & Barbara Hoskins
