During this past year, our Chef de Train, Will Midkiff passed away.  Our hearts were deeply saddened by his unexpected passing.  We all understand that life is only eternal though our Lord, Jesus Christ and the Father.  But when this time comes, it is very difficult to reason.  Please continue every day to remember those that have passed, whether it was your family member of friend.  As your Chaplain, I am always a phone call away for anything that I may be able to assist you with in such a time of need.  

At this time of year, we take time to be thankful for all the blessings we have in our lives, from family and friends to all that surrounds our lives today.  We remember those that have gone before us being thankful to have shared in their lives, memories that last forever and sharing now those whom we treasure most and dear to our hearts.  As we embark on the beginning of this new year, 2025, may we all thank almighty God for all that has been bestowed to us.  Rich in family, praying for good health and a future that is only known to him.  As we celebrate,  may we truly reflect on all that is good in our lives and not look upon those things, present and past that may not embrace our commitment to God and Country.  I wish all of you and your families a very prosperous 2025.  May your homes be blessed with God's present, light and love.
