A Few More Memories

Like others I have many pleasant memories of the Klopfenstein weekend. At one point I had a list of meaningful moments, but most have already been shared such as getting to tour the grain elevator after hearing numerous stories from Dad about working there.

Mark summed up those stories quite a few years ago by saying, "The older Dad gets, the harder he worked when he was younger."

However, one thing that hasn't been mentioned that I really appreciated was going to church with family on Sunday morning and hearing Tim's sermon which focused on the foundation on which Grandpa (whom I never knew) and Grandma K. built their family: recognition of man as a sinner; man's need of a Savior, Jesus Christ; and man's need to live a life of faith by following God's commands.

Many thanks to those who made the weekend memorable. I know there was a lot of background work by Judy, Dave, Jamie, and others that we benefited from but never saw.
