In Sympathy
God knows your loss. Lay your burdens in His hands, for he is strong. Rest your head in His shoulders, for he is compassionate. Give to Him your pain and sorrow, for He is love.
Praying that His love will comfort your sorrowing heart, praying that His promises will bring you perfect peace.

I knew Mr. Brown for the past year or so. I met Mr. Brown at the VA medical center where I work as an electrician. I pushed Mr. Brown down to breakfast every morning when I worked, and really enjoyed having conversation with him. Mr. Brown was a very nice and very interesting person. He will surely be missed, by myself, his family and others that he has touched.
