Messages:
Wilf's interest in and generous support of missions were a great encouragement to us over the past four decades. May God's comforting grace be yours in large measure during this time of great loss.
We we saddened to hear of Wilfrid's passing. Our condolences to Lorelea, Greg and family. We are thinking of you all. Dick Wilcox and family
Thinking of you as you celebrate the life of your dad and the sadness of his leaving. May Christ's peace be with you and your family.
So sorry to hear about your Dad Lorelea & Greg, Melva & Merrill & family. He was a wonderful man and will be missed by all who knew him. Love and Prayers to all of you.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. Please take comfort in these words as there can be no greater peace than knowing that there is in fact an end to all that one has to endure on this earth, all my love and prayers to the Doyle Family at this time.
Dear Lorelea - thank you for your heartfelt message to me about your dear Dad's passing. He was a deeply faithful man - and one of the kindest and most generous people I was ever blessed to have met! (didn't we have some good laughs about our love/hate relationship with the Magpie species). Your Dad is now in our Lords loving arms. God bless and keep all of you as you go through this difficult time of loss. Yvonne Martinez
