Dear Mark,
I and the kids are very sorry to hear that your Grandpa has gone to be with Jesus. I know you were very close to both of your grandparents.
Your grandpa will be greatly missed, but remember he is with your grandma again and the two of them are in complete bliss with our Savior, Jesus. We can all look forward to that blessed reunion with Him and all those who have gone to be with Him.
In the mean time, I pray God would uplift and keep you, dear friend. I Praise God for the gift of your Grandparents! I am sure they are very proud of you.
Read Psalm 27 to remind you that God is holding you in the palm of His hand. God bless you.
Your friends,
Jana, Peter and Kirstin
Mark wished I could have been at the service to give you a hug and remind you that the Lord has your grandpa now and he is with your grandma. They both loved you so much. May the Lord keep you safe and help you through this sad time. Don’t forget your Atonement friends and how much we care for you also. Take care. The Webb Family
MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY FOR SUCH A GREAT LOSS. I KNOW HIS GRANDSON MARK THROUGH MY DAUGHTER SUZETTE. HE IS A PRINCE OF A MAN AS I’M SURE HIS GRANDPA WAS TO. LOSS IS HARD, BUT THE MEMORIES LAST FOREVER. GOD BE WITH ALL OF YOU IN THIS SAD DAY AND KNOW ELMER IS IN PEACE. GOD BLESS YOU.
I only had the opportunity to meet and visit with Elmer on a few occasions, but felt like I knew him so well because of my ongoing friendship with Mark Warren. From the first time I met Elmer, I could see instantly what a loving and caring person he was and also how appreciative he was of his family. I know he will be missed dearly and we are so sorry for your loss.
. My memories our phone calls really getting to know grandpa, I’d never before dare mom would tell me not to bother him Our phone calls that last year ment so much Mark thing I never new about grandpa. Mark did you know grandpa had one of the first Harley Davidson? I just wish you could understand. I have so much to tell you and so many questions to ask you. One day God willing my prayers will be answered and that 500 lbs phone will ring it would be my family just calling to say hello. 209-702-1810
