I read several of your entries and was reminded of what a wonderful Christian man you have always been.

If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans" (Rmns 8:26 - The Message).

There is not a day that I don't think of you and your family, especially Kathy and say a little prayer for each of you. That home has known so much joy and yet, a lot of sorrow. I am so sorry that you have to endure the pain of not having your family, together in your home each evening. Your faith will see you through each day, I know, because it does for us.

Dave, as I read your 3/28 note the tears just spilled from my eyes. I remembered the question in last week’s Lenten study about cosmic space and historic silence testifying to a common author and architect. I could not help but think that in the silence and space of your lives that things still hang together and move on as you keep you eyes on the author and archeitect. In continued prayer, Sha...(trimmed)

Dave, We made it back to Indiana last night and continue to talk about so many wonderful memories of our time there for Kennerly and Patrick's wedding. Chief among them are ones of your dear family, easily recalled as I read your "updates" page about dancing with Hannah at the reception and then listening to Doug's sermon on Psalm 139 from Sunday with Kathie. This verse also came to mind. May ...(trimmed)

Dear Dave and Kathie: Each sunday morning I great the kids with "This is the day that the Lord has made" to which the kids are supposed to reply "let us rejoice and be glad!" I am always amazed that Hannah's face always reflects such joy; I often pull her to the front of the group to demonstrate how her beautiful face reflects such joy. What a miracle. I also try to give her as many hugs a...(trimmed)
