To Cousin John’s gracious wife and beautiful children,
We know that there’s no words nor acts of kindness that could fill the emptiness of his physical being but through God‘s grace and mercy with the acceptance of His Will may his spiritual being gleam forever in your hearts with his awesome jolly smile.
