    Lee and Eleanor were faithful attendees at David Adams Memorial Chapel in Norfolk while I served there. Their kindness, joy and love were gifts to me and the entire chapel community. So thankful that God, in His providence, allowed our paths to cross! My life has definitely been blessed by their lives. Rest in Christ my Brother and we will gather at the heavenly throne soon.
