Losing a loved one is never easy, but our loving God promises to give the strength and courage you'll need to endure, and to cope with the pain of your loss. He also promises to hold your hand every step of the way. Isaiah 40:29, 41:10,13*

Dear Kevin and family,

Sending all our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
"God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered, "come to me." A golden heart stopped beating hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best." ~UNKNOWN
