Our sincere condolences to George and all the Family. The celebration service for Kathryn was a fine, suitable remembrance of a faithful disciple over many years. We especially recall with thanksgiving our ministry time in Wyndham early 1970s, when you were all a valued part of our congregation. May the ever-present Good Shepherd be especially close to you in this time of readjustment. Our love and prayers, from Roy and June McKenzie, Gore
