I would like to thank the Ionia Community and beyond for honoring me as I retired after 50 years as an optometrist in Ionia. The number of cards, gifts, calls, and even hugs, was very humbling.
Thank you also to those who attended my retirement party organized by the staff of Grand Rapids Opthalmology-Ionia. Again, I was overwhelmed by the response.
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:6 (ESV)
And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
Colossians 3:14 (ESV)
