In Rememberance


My wife and I went back to Canada for a couple of weeks. During that time my father had a stroke. He was recovering when we left for Taiwan. However when we got homewe received a phone call from my brother telling me Dad had had another stroke and had passed away.
My father was a godly man. Honest and full of integrity. He worked hard all his life to provide for his family. He loved talking about fishing and football and was loved by many people.
I was happy that I had a chance to say things to him before I left that I needed to say.
He is now with his heavenly Father and will rest forever in His arms. This was my father's belief and hope. Raise a praise to God for this man. Henry David Peter Hildebrand. Dad and Grandpa and a loving husband.

Hey guys,

It's awesome to see two people so strong in our awesome God. And I can just imagine your dad basking in the glory of our Lord. Personally, I can't wait.
