Randy & Margaret,
The Werkhovens were a family favorite of ours. Jimmy & Anna Leita came to visit my Mom many time before her passing in 2011. And Jimmy would stop by to visit with my Dad after that. He would show up with a sack full of burgers and fries. I was lucky enough to be there a few times for that.
Linda & I invited them to our rehersal dinner as that weekend was Mom & Dad's 50th anniversary. We had a big time at The Butcher Shop.
We love you both and are praying for you at this time. Thanks to Jesus that we will see them again. God bless you and comfort you with his love.
