Thomas Ebling wrote a sympathy message

“Dear cousin Nancy My heart goes out to you and yours, of the sad news of Robert’s passing. The Lord is good, you had 64 years of marriage together on this earth and you will be with Robert again with the Lord Jesus. Alma and I knew each other for just over 71 years, we met each other in 3rd grade. Alma loved the Lord Jesus and his word so very much, there is not a day that goes by that I tell her how much I love her and miss her. I will be praying for you during this difficult time. Tom Ebling”
