To the family of Esther Bradford -

I grew up with the Bradford family and am deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Esther.

During this difficult time may you find comfort in your faith.

I am reminded of the scripture -
Matthew 28:20 - I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

Your daughter/sister/mother/friend is in HIS care.

I will be in prayer for your healing.

If I could speak just one more time, this is what I would say to my love ones left behind. Today was like no other day. It was a day of Glory & Celebration for me. It was a day of mixed emotions & dismay. I knew there was something special about today. This was the day that all of my hardships, my tears, and worries would come to an end. This was the day that I would be going home to be with the Lord. This would be my day and when that moment came I closed my eyes for the last time & said my goodbyes to this world. Rejoice in this day that the Lord has made & not rebuke this day. Rejoice now for I am home with the Lord. You will see Him & me soon. I have seen the Glory of the coming of the Lord. I just wish that you could see this place call Heaven. It is an unbelievable place of joy & peace.
To the Bradford Family,
I want to express my deep love & concern for each & everyone of you in your time of need. So I say to each family member & friends of this family. Look toward the Heavens from which our help comes from & know that God only takes the best. May God richly bless each & every one of you.
