Dear Shirley,

I am so sorry to hear of your recent loss. You were so fortunate to have him with you so long. Looks like you have a wonderful family and support in this time of need. May you find peace in your heart.

Dear Mrs. Janson

May you have peace at this sad time. Here is a encouraging thought to dwell on from God's Word the Bible.

Philippians 4:8-10

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
