Daniel says, "I was first introduced to Tante Emmy about 12 years ago when I was preaching for the congregation that met in Pinangsia. Steve baptized her younger sister-in-law and several others of the family back in the 1970's. This lady never married and has been living with her brother's family for many years and faithfully attended worship services as long as she was physically able. She usually walked bent over, probably because of Osteoporosis. She finally reached a state that the family could no longer care for her at home so she was placed in a nursing facility. She has lived 93 years and is now pretty much bedfast." A nephew of hers telephoned Daniel a few days ago and told him she had been sent to the hospital and they were uncertain of what the outcome might be. They asked if he would visit her in the hospital. He did and shortly after that she was able to return to the nursing home. Daniel was pleased that when she saw him she recognized him and was happy to see him again.
