To the Melaragni Family: Finding the right words of comfort is very difficult I hope these words of encouragement found in the Holy Bible be of comfort to you. 2Thess 2:16 " moreover, May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our father, who loves us and gave everlasting comfort and good hope by means of undeserved kindness.
