My deepest sympathy to Mike and Nancy and Family with Eddie's passing. He is now no longer in pain and no more suffering. He is Home with the Lord and you all will see Him again as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. This is a promise that He made and He never breaks a promise. This is just a temporary separation. May you all be comforted in your time of mourning. I love you all so very much. You are my family. God be with You and Keep You.
In His Grip
