    THANKFUL WORDS OF APPRECIATION


    “Most of us understand the advantages of living in a small community of friends and family. The prayers offered and
    the support given was quite overwhelming to us. We were touched by words of condolences, your support and references
    made to Dave's character traits. Donations to his memorial were a testimony to your generosity.
    Our family was fed spiritually by the beautiful music from the choir, the Knights of Columbus and all those in attendance,
    Father Swamy's leadership in prayer and the presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
    Our family and guests were treated to one of Dave's favorite meals provided by the Chicken House and the members of
    Circle 1. We received many compliments about the meal and those who were there to help serve and clean up.
    All acts of kindness given to us is a reminder that Christ's Love dwells among us. We have been Blessed!”
    ………………………The family of Dave Schneider
