To our dearly beloved father, offired by Lorraine Crosley: 
Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practice vile things to a resurrection ofjudgment. ljohn 5:28, 29) 
Until we see you again, rest in peace Daddy.
