We sure are sorry that you-all have suffered such a loss. He was a wondedful person and will be missed by many for many days to come. Our loss is his gain because to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord and soon we will be reunited, never to be seperated again. His days of suffering are over. I believe he is in a place where there is no more sickness nor sorrow or woe. May the God of all comfort,- comfort you in your time of sorrow.Take care of yourselves and know that you-all are in our thoughts and prayers May He forever keep you in His care and may He forever call you His.
