“Never I have experienced a more loving and memorial birthday. Turning 75 has been a total joy thanks to my family, friends and The Coming King Foundation for treating me like royalty. Also, a first for me was being presented with seven beautiful long- stemmed red roses. I half expected to look down at my feet and find glass slippers! (Tour Guide) Karl Jack gave a warm welcome and fabulous quick overview of the history of The Empty Cross and presented each of us with a packet of information containing the CD which explains everything more completely, and then we began our stroll through the garden. Just as we neared the Fisher Of Men sculpture, God blessed us with sunshine on our faces and diminishing winds, so we could walk, read, question, ponder, marvel and pray in comfort. As we concluded our day, gathered back at our starting place (Tour Guide) Chaplain David James led us in prayer. Just as he concluded I mentioned to him that one of our group who recently suffered great loss in her family, had just joined us, and missed the prayer. Without hesitation and with great ease, he asked us to lay hands upon her and circle her with love. It was very moving then and now. She told me later, she never felt more loved than in that moment and it was something she would never forget. As for me, I can assure you that as long as my mind and memory cooperate, I will never forget this birthday celebration, and I am eternally grateful to Max Greiner, the Foundation, Louada, Nancy, Karl and David for their help in making it happen. And most of all I am grateful to God for blessing me every day of my life.”
