May caring thoughts bring you and your family strength during this time of sadness. May you also find comfort in each other, while soothing your anxiety during this trying time. God's Word the Bible gives comfort where it says "..I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears..." May the love of friendship,and family carry you through your grief. Remember to share kind, and loving memories with each other to bring a warm smile to your faces.
