  2. Dear Pastor Bob,

    Hope you don't mind me addressing you as Pastor Bob rather than Kansas Bob. Somehow Pastor Bob sounds more fitting than Kansas Bob for Kansas Bob reminds me of Kansas Kid :-)

    Sorry about the long delay as I was on medical leave.

    Thanks for leaving a comment in my blog post . I have responded to your comment, but it is just small talk.

    May the Good Lord bless you and your family.
