To the Editor:

It’s nice to have a pleasant experience during this season of family gatherings and planning. My wife and I had the privilege to visit and share the reading of scripture with her brother-in-law, Owen Stangeland, at Tuff Memorial Home in Hills. The last time we visited him he was too weak to visit much and some hours later he died. Joyce and I were saying how much we would miss him, when she happily made this comment, "He will spend Christmas in Heaven."What a statement, what a comfort for anyone who would also experience a loss of a loved one during this season. It is a pleasant experience to know that a suffering loved one has passed into the promise of glory and peace. Elmer HovlandLuverne
