So sorry that this has happened. We can't see that this day will come. We think that these Bazemore boys are invincible. Lord Peggy all we could ever do is what they would allow us to do, and that was to love them and and come up good ideas that were good for them and make them think it was their idea. He will still be BIG BROTHER. Love you girl. If you need me, I am here. Kiss the boys and the girls and see you tomorrow. Kisses, Trudy and family.

I am sorry to hear about the passing of Walt. I pray that his family is comforted by knowing that in the future God promises to do away with the illnesses that affect our lives so much today. “And no resident will say: “I am sick.” - Isaiah 33:24. We can trust in this promise because God always carries out his word.
