To the Apostol family, sorry for your loss, may GOD give you his LOVE, PEACE, and STRENGTH in this time of sorrow. He is with GOD now in HEAVEN with all the ANGELS that are with JESUS, he is walking on streets of gold and moving into his new home that GOD has promised to all who believe in him. Mr. Apostol will live for eternity in HEAVEN with JESUS our savior. And he has a wonderul new body that will never feel pain, or get a illness again. And i'm sure when GOD sends him on a job here on earth he will look into his family and friends and make sure all is well with the family he had to leave behind. May he R.I.P <3
