It's hard when death comes unexpectedly and we don't have the chance to say good-bye. During this difficult time, may the Lord comfort the bereaved family's hurting heart with tender care and the gentle hope of an eternal reunion. Please remember these words that can be found in II Thessalonians 2:16 (TLB) "... Jesus Christ ... has loved us and given us everlasting comfort and hope ..."
With Sympathy and Prayers
