It is comforting to know that we have a loving Heavenly Father who comforts and strengthens us during times such as these. 1Peter 3: 5,6

I am sorry to read of the untimely passing of your loved one, Chris. He will be missed indeed. Death was never a part of God's original plan for mankind. Sadly due to the disobedience of Adam in the Garden of Eden we all inherited sin and death as recorded at Romans 5:12. Lovingly Our Grand Creator extends to us all the hope of everlasting life as recorded at John 17:3. He will make this hope a reality by mean of his Kingdom in which we pray for in the Lord's Prayer. Once more I am sorry for your loss.

September 8, 2018

My deepest heartfelt condolences to your family for your loss. Losing a loved one so young can be devastating, please know that God feels your pain and he has made the possible, for you to see your beloved Christopher again ( 1 John 4:9; John 6:40). Until the fulfillment of Gods promises, may you find a measure of comfort in your cherished memories.

September 8, 2018

Please accept my dearest and heartfelt sympathy; I am so sorry for your loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this challenging time. (Isaiah 61:1,2) Sincerely,
