Paul’s eyes went to Ross and became moist. “We’ve come a long way, haven’t we, Ross?” The younger man nodded, choked up as well, his arm around Mandy.
“It’s good to have Grant here. I hear his summer with the boys was very blessed. And my congratulations go to my niece Carrie; I hope we can make it back for the wedding.” Pete and Carrie smiled at him from their place and then at one another.
Paul looked for a long minute at his grandmother and Preston. He then spoke with emotion. “It’s good to have you with us, Preston. There isn’t any way to describe to you how precious it is to us that you love our grandmother as we do. And her beautiful countenance tells us she loves you in return. We thank God for you.
“I’ll close now with these words out of Second Thessalonians, the last verses. ‘Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all. The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle; so I write. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.’ ”
