God knows your heartache and shares your grief. May you find comfort and strength in the promise from God that he will change tears of grief to tears of joy. Isaiah 25:8 says “He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces. The reproach of the people he will take away from all the earth. Isaiah 26:19

I had the privilege of working with W.G. at Tinker for several years some 25 or 30 years ago but haven't seen him since He was a driver that only came thru the office for a short time daily, but I have very fond memories of our short daily visits and him as a happy, kind, friendly, loving family man. I was making vanity hand mirrors at the time and he was so happy to have some made of his cute grandbaby. May God comfort this family.
