To the Trepagnier family,
Every life has a purpose to fill, a purpose that we humans can seldom infer. Mr. Trepagnier was a gift from heaven, whose purpose was to make this world understand what love, friendship, goodness, and humbleness is all about. Goodness belongs to heaven and knows that Mr. Trepagnier is watching you as he bestows his beautiful smile upon all of you. At the present, it is difficult to see beyond the sorrow, but think of the memories of Mr. Trepagnier to help comfort you. We have, and our thoughts and prayers are with you. Remember that God is in control and he will provide you strength and peace during this period of your life.
