It is very difficult to lose a hand that gave you hope with a simple touch...and a voice that could calm just by speaking with you.

May God, our Father, now speak that same hope and calm into your heart as He welcomes your loved one into His presence.

Our prayer is that your wonderful, lifelong memories will give you great joy and comfort as you walk through your loss.
