Condolence: Dear Dad.
Well it has been over a year since you went to your real home with Jesus. Although you made Minnesota, Iowa and Texas seem like home for us all, they were still all temporary. I miss you and mom. Next Friday April 14, 2017 is good Friday. I think about planting potatoes. I will spend Thursday night at Celebrate Church and Good Friday at a community service at the high school here in Knoxville. Time is getting shorter and shorter until Jesus comes back to take us all with him for a great reunion. I will love seeing you and mom again. And just think, we will be withJesus and never have to be apart again.

To everyone who celebrated my father and or mother's life with us I thank you for the memories you shared and the valuable time you spent with us to comfort us in our grief. Remember F.R.O.G. and A.L.I.V.E.

Condolence: Grandpa was the most gentle soul I've ever known. He loved without judgement and had a way of making me feel unique & important. Things that will always remind me of Grandpa are: lima beans, chocolate milk, moped rides and Skip Bo games. With a heavy heart I say goodbye but also with a smile as I know he is at peace. I will greatly miss our letter swapping. Love, Kasie

Condolence: Growing up in the First Reformed Church of Evansdale the Zilks were a big part of my childhood. Merwin always a soft spoken person with a smile on his face! Maxine was my Sunday school teacher and made learning fun. Heaven has once again joined these two together and that I am sure of!
