We understand this great grief and there really are no words to express our sorrow upon learning of the death of this wonderful man. Take encouragement from knowing that Henry has arrived safely on Heaven's shore where he is whole and healthy again. There he will wait for the rest of his beloved family who are still here. While you grieve, remember Paul's words from 1Thess 4:13-18, and do not grieve as do those who have no hope.
Love and Prayers, Marv and Celeste Ruppelt
