Dear Aunt Doris and family,
Praise God that Uncle Marion doesn't have to suffer any longer with the pains and trials of this world. He was a fighter until the end. It is our prayer that God will continue to hold each of you in the palm of His hands during this time of bereavement. Earth has so sorrow that Heaven cannot cure, thank God for all of the precious memories that Uncle Marion left behind.
