Kip
Pat and family
Words can’t adequately convey the sorrow I feel for you, your whole family and all of us who loved Kip. I will miss having prayer with Kip and knowing he and Pat are praying for me together. I also will miss his loving concern for me and my family. Kip’s humor never failed to lift my spirits. I find consolation in thinking of him and Daddy reunited and praising God without any pain. I also find resurrection hope in knowing we will all be back together someday.
You are all in my prayers. Love, Ann
Friends
