    Sad news...

    Sam (our chief bottle washer) called me a little while ago. Adele's father passed away this morning around 1:00. He had been in the hospital for a week or so battling some sort of lung disease that greatly impaired his breathing ability.

    He was one of the best story tellers I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. One of his favorite sayings was "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story". Adele's open, warm and welcoming attitude was handed down from both her mom and dad. What a great family!

    He will be exceedingly missed by family and friends.

    I'm sure your prayers would be greatly appreciated by Sam, Adele and their entire family.
    Happy to have all 9 1/2 fingers!

          Adele, what a wonderful heritage your father and mother have handed down - the love and open arms of a caring family. With so much dysfunction in the family unit today it is truely a blessing to all of us to read about a family such as yours. For sure you are all being lifted in prayers of comfort by all who have had the pleasure and the blessing of knowing you and your parents.

          Peace to you and yours.

                              The chief cause of failure in this life is giving up what you want most for what you want at the moment.
