Dear Joe,
Please know that, you and your family, are in our prayers. Know, "that there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother...let him give...the oil of joy for mourning...the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness...Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.
May these words comfort you.
