I heard Cliff mention your Dad’s name many times over the years. Now they can renew their friendship in Heaven. Praying for your family. Donna Harp
Bob and I used to work together at Cummins in the 1970s. Bob taught me a lot of things about Cummins when I joined in 1972, he was kind, patient, and a gentle man. I will always hold him in the highest regard and honour his memory.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death'[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev. 21:4 The Hill Family is praying for you and your family Lauren..With Love, Robert
