Dear Abby

Infinite Grace Ministries changes lives by teaching a deeper understanding of God’s Word and His love for people. To honor fathers, I want to emphasize the importance of Dad’s role in their sons and daughters lives, and express my gratitude for all who take that role seriously; sometimes sacrifi cing what you’d rather do, to give yourself to your children. My Dad, who went to be with the Lord in September, 2022, was active in the no-till farming operation he enjoyed until the age of 88. I deeply appreciate the example he set for me–his life-long love for God; his determination to be cheerful even when life was hard; a well-balanced work ethic; his faithfulness as a husband and so important, his love for my sister, brother and I and for his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Now Galen, my hardworking and faithful husband of 53 years, continues his example to our sons and their families.
