I am very sorry for JW’s family. I never had the pleasure to meet him, but Betty is a friend that I cherish. She has taken care of JW with love and the dedication of a God fearing Christian wife. It has been rough on her having a full time job. JW is with his Heavenly Father and all the pain and weakness has passed away. Between praising Jesus he probably did a cartwheel. I send the whole family love and pray God sends down his grace to wrap around you all. A friend, Dolores Gearig
