Dear Rev. Gladys,
Your family came to my mind today. And so I decided to look you up and to also express my condolences regarding your beloved husband.
I will always remember your husband, Thomas as sweet, gentle and kind man. When I called your house and you were not at home, he took the time to listen and respond to my concerns with a compassionate heart. I miss brother Thomas, you and the Church family. You took me in as a family member, I will never forget.
May brother Thomas continue to rest in God´s Arms knowing that He is covering you and the rest of the family with peace, much love, spiritual and physical blessings, in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
