Also continue to pray for the Henley and Holmes families as they walk through their grief.

My tests came back ALL CLEAR! -- of course, I had to call them, and then they said, "oh yeah, it came out fine, come back in a year", I guess someone needed to make a car payment. =] Thanks for all of the prayers!

I really try not to leave anything/anyone out, but I work strictly on a word of mouth basis. I have to depend on you guys to send me the info that you would like to see on here.

Please help me get your info out there.
