ReplyDeleteI wanted to express our condolences to your family-and to Dustin's. I just found out that the funeral was last week-I'm sorry we missed it. Dustin was a great friend. My sister and I were reminiscing this weekend about hanging out with him. Our hearts go out to all of you and pray that you will be blessed with peace and comfort at this time.
