Dear Tom and the Fausto Vargas family,
We are so terribly sorry for your loss. We know that having someone on this earth for such a long time makes it so much harder to say goodbye. But knowing that they have gone on to a better life is the comfort we must embrace to help us to go on. Knowing that they are in a much better place is the comfort we use to help us continue. Knowing that someday we will be reunited with them where there is no sickness, no discomfort, no pain, is the comfort we have for now and for the future. With our love and prayers, Susan and Richard.
