Dear Bass Family;
It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter, and although it may seem hard right now. It will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again. Let Your Heart Not Overflow With Your Pain But Seek Out The Joy In The Memories That Remain, Remember Your Lost Is Yet Heavens Gain. At this time of sorrow, May these truths sustain you...Your loved one will always be as close as a memory, and the God of all comfort will always be as close as a prayer. Extending our deepest sympathy
Larry and Shirley Smith Family, Orlando, Florida
