Dear Mrs. Fenton,
I am John Menig's oldest (hate that) daughter. I was saddened to hear of your loss. I have the fondest memories of Mr. Fenton. He was always laughing and playful with all of us when we were children. Though I haven't seen him since I was a child, I can still see his signature greeting - his big smile and hearty laugh. Take care and God bless.

My condolences to the Fenton Family, I am praying that you all find the strength to get through this difficult time. Remember the footprints. One set doesn't mean you are walking alone, it means Jesus is carrying you.
My love & thoughts especially go out to Phil, Chris & family
