Dear Doucet family,
Please accept my deepest condolences for the lost of your dear loved one. My heart goes out to you all as I know it is always hard to say goodbye. I hope you can find comfort in cherishing her memory and in leaning on each other for support. Please remember that as you grieve you are not alone. Our Heavenly Father has promised to be by your side. He promises to think nothing but thoughts of peace towards you, to give you a future and a hope. -Jeremiah 29:11,12. He also says that you will call Him and He will listen to you. Now is the time to call on Him. I will keep you in my prayers as well. Take care of each other.

With love,
