Sad News



Curt's Dad, Ben, passed away at home on Sunday, October 14th. Although we were expecting it and we know that he is relieved of his pain and suffering, it's hard. It is comforting to know that he is reunited with Mom and she probably met him with that great twinkle in her eye, and they are anxiously engaged in doing what ever work the Lord has for them now. Funeral services were held on Friday, October 19th in Prineville with about 400 in attendance. Burial was Saturday in Woodburn, Oregon during a heavy downpour of rain. Local family members arranged for lunch where we could get out of the rain and visit. All ten of the brothers and sisters were in attendance and almost all of the 46 grandchildren, 66 great grandchildren and 14 great-great grandchildren. What a legacy.
