Facebook Twitter GoogleJanet, so sorry for your loss. You were so kind to my Dad (Marvin Clouser) when he was at MHRC. I haven’t forgot your kindness and won’t! And, then to find out I knew your sister Judy as well. You were a very giving person to the residents at MHRC and even to the families of those who lived a long way away from them (like me in Florida). God’s comfort to you — Rodney

I am so sorry that I am not able to come celebrate Uncle Mike’s life but watching that video and seeing his face makes me smile. I am praying for you and your family always and know that Mom and Dad are always just a phone call away. I will be moving into school in the fall and then I will be just a phone call a way as well if you ever need anything. You are so loved and so is Uncle Mike. I am sorry for your loss.
