Remember to keep you hand in God's hand. In the darkness of the night after friends and loved ones have departed, you'll have something to squeeze and the hand of someone who understands and cares.

To all of the Kraft's,
My sincere condolences on the loss of your father/husband/grandfather. I remember how interested your Father he was in your lives, and your studies...and how your Mother wouldn't let you come out on Saturday's until the housework was done (like our Mom)!
Peace to all of you during this difficult time of your loss. Your Dad had made the world a better place and Butternut too.
