To Elvira "A" and the entire Bullock family:
We were deeply sadden to learn of the loss of your husband and love one, Mr. Michael Bullock. We thank God for the opportunity we had to get to know him. It is said that when you cry, you cry alone but that is not true. The sadness you are feeling is felt by love ones around you. Our loss here on earth is the Lord's gain in heaven. We are sure he is now resting with the Lord. Be encouraged because the Word of God said "But God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus". Phil. 4:19
