Dear Kim,
How sorry I was to hear about your father passing away. I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking and praying for you and your family. I pray God will comfort you all during this sad time. Please try to remember that he is now in God's loving care, and feels no pain. He too is sad that he had to leave his loving family but God will wipe away all his tears and he will be joyful in God's loving arms. What a privilage. God Bless you and your family. Love Ellen
