To Russell and family ~ so very sorry to hear of your father’s passing.   The pictures in the photo gallery certainly show a man who was loved and brought much joy to his family.  May the promises of God give you comfort at this time.

Syble, Tina & Russell,
I am so sorry to hear about Herley. I can speak to on how hard it is to lose a Dad and there are no words to describe the void in your heart. My prayers are with you in the coming days. Again I am so sorry for your loss.
Love,
Melissa Reavill-Nu...
