While we will certainly miss having our Dad and Pappy, we take great comfort in knowing he is in heaven rejoicing with his Savior. He has been reunited with the love of his life, Jane and his precious daughter, Taunya along with so many others that he was able to share his faith and testimony with. He is now healed and renewed.
