Posted: 8th May 2010 by Shawn in Uncategorized

This is long overdue . . . maybe because the right words are hard to craft; perhaps impossible. Nevertheless, it is more than worth the attempt to share with you about a most godly woman who has poured her life into mine for just over 40 years now. Her name is Sherry Barnard, [...]
