Dear Barbra and family Our prayers are with you all. He is and will be missed. He arrived in heaven recently; Angels brought him there. Having a grand reunion with friends and loved ones dear. His earthly life is over, He's run his final race. He's had the joy of seeing CHTIST His saviour face to face. He's walked the streets of purest gold; He's seen beauties rich and rare. earth with all it's splendor in no way can compare. He knows now what Paul meant when he said to die is gain. For there is now no sorrow, headache, fear or pain. He's living in a mansion now that the LORD prepared for him. CHRIST bought it with His precious blood when He died on Calvary. Don't weep for him. for he is truly blessed. Thanks to CHRIST who died for him he now has eternal rest. By Pastor Ted Barker Love ya'll Terry,Vicki,Emily and David

To all of Kenneth's family: I will never forget Kenneth singing at Trappe Church when I was growing up. He loved singing for the Lord. I know he is in Heaven singing with my dad Bert Brown and Jack Spicer. We will hear them singing again one sweet day. Praise GOD!!! Love & Prayers, Judy Brown Testerman
