We wish to express our sincere thanks and deepest gratitude to all our relatives, and friends for all their kindness, prayers, flowers, food and cards of sympathy during the illness and death of my husband and our father, James T. Hepler.

We would like to give special thanks to Reverend Matt Kail, the Muddy Creek Presbyterian Church Cross and Crown, the Young Funeral Home, all the doctors, nurses and respiratory therapists on the fifth floor MICU at Butler Hospital. It is such a comfort to know so many people share our loss.
