Dear family and friends of Joseph Freitas,

I'm truly sorry to hear about your loss. I can sympathize with the pain you may be experiencing. I too myself have recently loss a family member. The bible has greatly helped my family and I to cope and remain hopeful. Acts chapter 24 verse 15 tells us that, "There is going to be a ressurection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." I certainly look forward to that day and so can you!

Respectfully,

M.B.
