Dear Rhonda,

I'm so sorry to hear of Ben loosing his job, but maybe God has something
much better in store for him where he will be appreciated.

I had that happen once after a medical leave, and I was so very depressed,
so I know what it's like.

I'm praying for Ben, and for you also.

Many lovings and squeezings for you both.

Love and Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
