Not sure what to say?

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. When a family member or friend dies,our pain and grief can become unbearable. But the bible gives us real comfort. ( 1PETER 5:6-7.) Please read it.

Dear Pat and girls, We are so sorry for your loss. Chuck was a wonderful man and my mother always had great praise for him. Over the pass few years of reintroducing ourselves to you in Seattle and then when you came to Montana, we were so happy to have had that time to be family.

Please take comfort from our thoughts and prayers.
Colleen (Flaherty) and Randy Biehl
