We have the pleasure of knowing the wonderful family of the #4 A's Grandson's, Colleen and Mike Arruda in Cali. Such a wonderful and caring family that we hope to keep for life. As life passes us by we tend to treasure the friends and family we spend time with. Alex shared his love and commitment to his Nana & Papa he cherished so dearly. Nana & Papa meant allot to him and they will forever rest in peace with their maker and as I can see-playing cards :). We hope the family finds comfort and join each other with fond memories. Love, Michelle & Lloyd Germyn

It was a pleasure to interact with Herman at Grace Barker the last few weeks. He had a twinkle in his eye and a great sense of humor. My brother Tony enjoyed his company playing cards. We will miss him. Gloria, it was beautiful to see your devotion to Herman. I know you will miss him. God bless you and your family.
