I'm thankful for so many precious family members in my life!

Tom's lovely Aunt Shirl and Uncle Dr. Ernest Copple took him in as their own when his mother died~when he was two. They hadn't had children yet. When Tom's dad came to take him back to start Kindergarten... They started having children and have 3 beautiful children...married and now about 11 grandchildren. They still loved Tim, Tony and Tom as their own and got together often and Tom spent summers with them and holidays....they made many happy times with them and their father David...I'm very thankful that Sharayah is able to see them more now that she's in Indianapolis. That was one of the reasons I felt safe letting her attend school there. Knowing she would have close family ties there also. They are an example of unconditional love and the finest hospitality anywhere. I hope we can be a little like them as we age. They are very active and spread happiness around them.

Hey Cousin Tom and Sara,

This is Andrew from Indianapolis. I went to Calvary this weekend for the 75th anniversary service and got to talk with Sharayah. She said she is really enjoying her time here.

Nice Blog. Take care.
