Nancy & Family
God is your refuge and strength in this the saddest day of your life. Cast your burden on the Lord and He will sustain you.
We wish our time here on earth with the one we love could last forever, but keep in mind the day will come when we will walk hand in hand with our loved ones on streets of gold. And that walk will last Forever, never to be separated from God or our loved ones again.
“Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”
Forever Love
