Carmen and Eva and family, Mr. John was a very nice man. He cared about Bub and visited him a lot after Betty passed away. He was very friendly with us when we happened to be at Bub's at the same time. I don't remember a time he wasn't nice. Take comfort in God's words and the fact that your daddy is in a good place and out of pain.
