My heartfelt sympathy to the Pressler family.
Irvin, Doris and Kristi meant a lot to me as I worked with Irv as the office manager of King Hill Christian church during the time he pastored there.
My husband and I had a great relationship with them.
May the GOOD GOD bless each of the family and console them.

Hi Presslers- My deepest sympathies to you all. Doris was always such a fun lady to be with, I enjoyed her stories and family get togethers. And she was ALWAYS wanting to see if you needed another helping of food! I remember one weekend down there when she tipped me off where to go play golf while everyone else went to church. Anyway, thank GOD for the end of her suffering and celebrate her wonderful life. Kim and Shannon will say Hi to all for me. My love to you all,
Bob

Hi cousins,

Am so sorry to learn of Doris's passing. I have been trying to locate her for some time. A few years back I became interested in genealogy and I thought that your mom might have been able to provide some connections to the Sinclair/Madison ancestors. I've found quite a bit on my own, met new cousins and am enjoyed the hobby.

I hope you are all doing well, enjoying your family and all that life has to offer.

Larry
