DLmail 12/26/2008 Randy's FUNeral

This will be brief. I won't be at church this Saturday. Pam and I will be trekking to Michigan for Randy Shafer's funeral. I know that Tim and Zach are scheduled to be there. Kevin and Monica are gone this weekend as well and my attempts to add subs so far are fruitless, but it will happen. This Saturday is likely to be a lightly attended service, and for once I am really hoping for low numbers of kids(odd).

I am 1/4 Croation, 1/4 German, 1/8 Italian, 1/8 Scottish, 1/16 Cherokee and 3/16 Guilt, but this time my guilty feelings of missing DL are being overridden by a sincere desire to honor Randy and support Beth, Jenn, Ian and Emma at the funeral. So I am trying to not worry, to let go. Thanks for understanding. Click here for the small group material for this weekend.

Randy was a great shepherd, mentor, pastor, father, husband, friend...and manicurist?
