Dear Mr. and Mrs. Leis. We don’t know each other. When I read the obituary in the London Free Press this morning,it brought back memories of the pain my parents went through (1945) when their first born (a son) died when he was 16. I like to share these words with you: WE HAD PROTECTED HIS LIFE, NOW O LORD, YOU EXTINGUISH IT, OUR SON AND YOUR SON IS NOW WITH YOU AT HOME. HE DID NOT COME EMPTY-HANDED, FROM PAIN AND STRUGGLES AND NIGHT, HE HAS BROUGHT HIS BRAVE SOUL OVER TO YOU. WE CRY, BUT WE KNOW, HE JUST WENT AHEAD OF US, AND ONE DAY WE ALL LIVE IN YOUR HEAVENLY HOME! God bless you all and give His love and peace to you. Sincerely DORIS BARRETT
