Not sure what to say?

Linda and Family,

So sorry for your loss. It's not easy losing a parent, but may good memories bring you comfort.

It is never easy to lose a loved one, I pray you find comfort in Gods promise found at John 6:40 which says that soon we will see all our loved ones again. My deepest condolences to the family and friends.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
