Condolences

We offer our condolences and blessings to the family of Glen Pryor who
passed away in Colorado Springs where he had moved to be near family. Glen
was a long time member here, and we have missed him since he left. A service
was held in our sanctuary for family and firends.
And, we join with Eleanor and their family in their grieving over the loss
of John McKean on December 13th. John’s health had been slipping, but he
continued attending worship with Eleanor until very near his death. Thank
you, John, for all the ways you helped with our church and its family over
the years. You will be sorely missed. |
