Mr. Tabb and Family, heartfelt condolences to you and your family in the loss of your beloved Renee. Remember, Renee is not gone as long as you have memories of her in your hearts.

Also maintain that hope,dear family, of the resurrection and not be discouraged as some may be. Pray to our heavenly Father, through His Son, Jesus Christ, when times are to hard to bear. Have confidents that He will strengthen you to endure this trial; you can make it with His help, dear friends, just have faith. Never underestimate the value of prayer to God and what He can do for you through faith. (Romans 4:20)

Be there for one another and our Father will be there for all of you, dear friends.

Christian Love,
