Not sure what to say?

Mr Porterfield, Our sincere prayers are with you and family in the loss of your wife. May the scriptures be a source of comfort to you at this time.

Please know I care.

The Lord bless you and keep you;
The Lord make his face shine upon you,
and be gracious to you;
The Lord turn His face toward you,
and give you peace.
~Numbers 6:24-26
My deepest sympathies,

While I had not had the privilege of meeting Ms. Porterfield, I would like to express my sincere sympathy for your loss. Several people have told me what an outstanding person she was. May God bless you and comfort you as only He can do.
