Hello from across the miles to my dearly loved Penry friends and my Welsh 'family', the Penry family. My name is Jessica Graham, and I hold precious and sweet memories of Oswald, who, along with his beloved wife Mair, opened up his home in Bridgend to me in the summer of 1998, when I served as a missionary there. Oswald and Mair (along with their wonderful daughters and their own families) welcomed me with such tender, gracious, kind, and full-heartedness, that - all these years later - I feel such joy and gratefulness that God brought them into my life. Oswald was truly - and next to my own father - one of the kindest, purest, humblest, and wisest Christian men I have ever met. In such a short time in Wales, I grew to truly care for and love Oswald and Mair, who were both Godly mentors to me and taught me so much. I often mused that if I were to ever have a son, I would name him after my father (Van) and Oswald; if I were to have a daughter, I would have had Mair as a namesake also, this is how meaningful they both were (and are) to me. I love them both so much, as well as Ruth and Delyth and their families (and those beautiful kids!). Should anyone in the family view this, please reach out to me. With love and gratefulness for my brother in Christ, Oswald....Jessica
