Evelyn, Tammy, Gina and all your family…I am so sorry for your loss. I am sad for you yet happy and jealous for Uncle Dale because he is where we all want to be. Cousin Brenda encouraged me to share this memory I have NEVER forgotten:
One year, when I was a teenager, we were at your house for probably a Christmas gathering. In the middle of dinner, Uncle Dale asked if I had found Jesus. For a split second, I thought about being a smart butt and say, “I didn’t know He was lost.” I realized he was serious and maybe I should be too. At which point, I answered yes, but it gave me much to think about and consider at the time. I would’ve been in SO much trouble if I had said that!!!! I am thankful he was concerned for my spiritual welfare and I’m sure, at that moment, if I hadn’t answered yes, he would have made sure I could before leaving your house. What a legacy of faith. I will never forget that! I love you all!
