Jeff & Barb,
Sad news to hear Gerry’s passing away after so many years full of great memories. From our ball games at East to the Fairview Heights Legion team and your wedding. Plus Len at all those games either watching or coaching as well and maybe a few pick up games of basketball on your backyard court. You were hoping she would pass peacefully these last few years, and I know you have allot of family and friends with you right now.
All the best from our family to yours!!

Jeff, Barb and family,
What wonderful memories we have of your momma! She had the best little smile and giggle! My mom knew her since the Landsdowne days, which means I have known her all my life. Both of your parents have made huge impacts on our family. They were tireless servants of God and were always available to do whatever needed to be done. What an impact they made for the Kingdom!
Please know that we love you and are so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. But are so grateful to have the confidence that she is with her Lord.
