What a reunion it must have been when Jean met HT at the gates of Heaven. I can imagine the rejoicing and praise that must have rang throughout heaven. Yet, while they rejoice, we mourn. He was a fine man and very respected. He will most definitely be missed, but as long as you carry him in your heart, and share the memories, he will always be with you. May God grant you comfort and peace.
