Our hearts are saddened by your loss and our thoughts and prayers are with you. Death leaves a heartache no person can heal, love leaves a memory no person can steal. It's difficult to see beyond the sorrow, but looking back on the memories we pray helps to comfort you tomorrow. God promise never to leave you so remember, Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.
