May our Lord and Savior give you peace and comfort during this time of loss. Turn your eyes upon Jesus for he will give it to you all.

Donna, I cannot begin to know your grief or understand the void you must feel in your life. There is only one who can understand that. I pray that God will comfort you and bring you peace beyond all understanding. I know that this will take much time to come to pass. But, be rest assured that I will remember you in prayer for months and years to come. You will not be forgotten after a short period. Please feel free to call on me at any time. I want you to know that I love you and my heart breaks for you dear sister.

We are so sorry to hear about Allen. Allen, Andrew, and Aaron used to attend our Sunday school class when they were teenagers. Allen was always such a fine, polite, young man. So many things come to mind when I think about Allen - especially his love of being outdoors and talking about trucks and tractors. One other thing that sticks clearly in my memory about Allen was how respectful he was for others. Please know that we are praying for God's comfort as you mourn for Allen.
