Daddy Luke,

Do know that God makes NO mistakes and He will never put more on us than we can ever handle. Be encouraged and know that Aunt Ruth lived Good and Blessed life. But rejoice in the fact that she knew God and had a personally relationship with God. She is in a better place.

Love,

Larry and Ayana
