Red will always be remembered for his kind heart and cheerful outlook on life. He loved his Lord Jesus with all his heart and soul. He was a loving husband and in the later years, a caregiver to his wonderful wife and now he is united with her. I am sure God has a garden for Red in heaven and if anyone is in need of a great broom in heaven, Red is your man! I know Red has now heard those wonderful words from our Lord Jesus, "Well done, my good and faithful servant". Your church family and friends will miss you Red. --Cindy Rothfuss
