Ms. Sue, Sincere Sympathy in your time of loss. You and your family remain in our thoughts and prayers . At this time of sorrow may faith in Christ bring you matchless grace, limitless comfort and an abiding peace that surpasses our understanding.
Upon their passing I believe that our loved ones join that great cloud of heavenly witnesses (Hebrews Chapter 11)who cheer us on... to fight the good fight, to keep the faith, to hang in there until the purpose of the Lord is accomplished in our lives as well.
