May the peace of God that excels all thought give you comfort during this time of sadness.

Strength
God took the strength of a mountain, the majesty of a tree…
The warmth of a summer sun, the calm of a quiet sea.
The generous soul of nature, the comforting arm of night…
The wisdom of the ages, the power of the eagle's flight.
The joy of a morning in spring, the faith of a mustard seed…
The patience of eternity, the depth of a family need.
Then God combined these qualities; when there was not another…
He knew His masterpiece was complete, and so He called him - Van your loving Son.
My prayers are with you all in this time of loss. May God Comfort and Bless you all.
