1st Anniversary

A time to Remember (Precious Memories)

Today marks one year since your untimely departure from within our midst. It has been one long period of unending sadness, gloom, and unanswered questions.

Your effervescent presence in our lives was always palpable and assured even though you stayed far away at the Coast.

Now the home is desolate, forlorn, and the bright embers of your life with us is now but a pale shadow receding into obscurity.

Fondly remembered by your wife Esther, children Cynthia, Dan, and Zippy; the entire Festo Generation, Dad Festo, brother Ben, and sisters Rossy, Bessy, Mangy, Emmy, Christine, and Clemmy.

‘‘For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.” (1 Corinthians 15:25,26).
