    Ed and Iris were wonderful Gideon friends in our Story County camp. I have missed them since they moved to IN. I was just reminded to pray for Iris the other day.

    May you be blessed in this time of sorrow and sweet memories. She loved her family much.
    I remember there garden and orchard.

    Remember Jesus and his promises for Iris and you,
