I'm having a hard time grasping how this could be. We will always remember the Easter you took us in for dinner and the visits we had together. We also remember fondly the time we were given use of the June Lake Cottage for a few days in 2002, after I had worked at Marion Med Center for 4 months. What a wonderful blessing your parents were to us and many others. We were contemplating coming to SM again this summer for a visit, wish we could have done this earlier. Love Fran DeVries Dear Family,

I learned of their passings late. I have had trouble with my computer and have lost a great deal of my emails. Please contact me with your address and if you can locate Richard Koerner's address which I also lost please foward that to me also. I send you and your family, Wayne and his and your mother my most heartfelt regret at the loss of both Mark and Sue. God will keep you strong through your sorrow and your faith will support you. I only wish I could be there to share in your grief and support you through some very long days and nights. Love, Jean Dear Lynn,

It will just not be the same without my weekly visits to their home. They were such a great example of how to live the Christian life in spite of difficulties. Their devotion to each other and to the Lord will forever live in my heart and mind. They are together with the Lord and that gives me great comfort. One day I will join them and then there will be no more goodbyes. I love you Mark and Sue. I have been missing Mark and Sue greatly these last weeks.

I was surprised and happy at what a wonderful yet challenging life you have all had. Mark was an amazing man, he is in good company with Joseph, David, Daniel, and Jesus. I remember him when he changed tires at Sears, how he teased and wrestled Wayne and took big brother care of Lynn. He also helped me in my darkest hour. I will tell my wife and my two son's about him tonight when they come home from school. I married later in life and it has been great, I wish you could meet my wife, Nico, Solomon is 15, Isaac's 12. When you speak to Wayne, Lynn, or any family, please tell them I am fine and in the Lord and wish them well, God bless you in this season, Sue Mike Smith Sorry, accidentally sent that too soon.
