Dear Bertha,

I know words may not be found to express the feelings you may have right now. Remember God is still in control and He does not make any mistakes. Remember God promise that He will never leave or forsake you. Hold on to the memories and in time the memories will feel the void. I am only a phone call away. May God continue to bless you and your family.
