John Muckenfuss,
Words can not express how much I am gonna miss this precious man of God. If you ever wanted to sit and just talk about the goodness of God, it was with this man. I was blessed enough to join his family 14 years ago and in that time it never failed when he didn't want to talk about Jesus. He is where I long to be now. Have a great time with the Lord my dear sweet father-n-law. I will see you again one day when we meet at the Throne of God. Until then you will be greatly missed. Love your daughter-n-law Angel.
