Praying for your family at this time of your loss. Matthew was a special man. Remember him coming to church when he was younger. May God be with you and give you strength with the loss of Matthew.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise found in 1 Thessalonians 4 : 14 can bring some comfort. Knowing that there is a future for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
