Dear Brother Edwin,

I send my love to you and trust you are held in the grace of God and are in the bosom of your family. May the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with you. I am missing you brother.

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
-- John 11:25,26
