Dear Lewis family,

I am sorry for your loss. It is difficult to lose someone that you love dearly. This was not God's original purpose. As evidence he sent his only beloved son Jesus Christ to open up an opportunity so that we can gain life again. John 3:16 Please accept my condolences at this time.

Remembering Manny delights many and so, time for reflection can bring misty eyes, mysterious smiles and involuntary laughter of times gone by and yet these are reinvigorating for the here and now. Ecclesiastes 3:1,2,13.

Please accept my sympathy on your loss. Please look to our Merciful and loving God to comfort you at this difficult time. May his precious love bring comfort to your hearts. He says " I have heard your prayers and I have seen your tears". 2 Kings 20:5
