Brian Azure, Sr. says
I was sorry to hear about Dale passing away. I know that the Lord is not willing that any should perish; I know that He came to open the door to heaven for us, and to give the gift of eternal life. I know that Dale accepted this gift earlier in his life, and that he knew the way of salvation. My prayers and condolences to his family.
