Bay Pines National Cemetery

Dear Friends and Prayer Partners,

Just for your information, The military service for Louis will be Tuesday, Feb. 16 at 10 Am at Bay Pines. For those of you not familiar with the cemetery, the setting is outdoors, standing. There is a lovely smallish gazebo where the family stands and cars are parked all around the circle. It is a beautiful area. If any of you wish to attend, you are more than welcome, but there may not be room to get very close. Daryl and I were out there yesterday and a ceremony was taking place, which was very impressive.

I cannot tell you how much we have been lifted on a cloud of prayers through Louis' last days and my hospitalization. We sre sustained and lifted up with God's loving arms around us. Thank you so much!

Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
