Dear Rick,
I'm June, Steve's mama. I just wanted to personally thank you for ALL you are doing to help Steve and Sheri. I wasn't raised in church. When Steve became a Christian at 16, we just started going to church to encourage him to follow the path he saw before him. Little did we know Steve would have such an important role in our family getting "back to basics" with the Lord in the center. He told us from the beginning that he wanted to be a missionary. It seems ironic that in fulfilling that desire, he has to leave his worldly body.
I believe that Steve and Sheri are soul-mates. As his mother, I know my pain too well; but Sheri is losing even more. The blog they are sharing has been ministering not only family and friends, but people around the world. Not only Egypt, China, and Mexico where they have worked in the mission field, but from the US literally from coast to coast. People who don't even know SnS are weeping, praying and renewing their faith. Steve and Sheri have become a catalyst to so many. No mission trip would ever touch this many lives.
None of this would have been possible if they hadn't had a "quarterback" like you! We will be forever be grateful to you and the blessed people of LPC. My tears flow freely these days. I'm losing my precious son, but gaining faith in the Lord's path. May the Lord bless you in a very unique way; you are special to us and to the Lord.
In His Grace,
Mama June
