“This is Heaven on Earth. It’s about all I can say. I had relatives that have stayed here over the years and ranted and I am just mad at myself for not coming sooner. I am grateful too that I was able to see Marv shortly before he crossed over to the Lord. Please keep his soul in this place as much as possible.”
