I would like to express my deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your dear husband. It can be very painful to lose your best friend and partner in life. Our loving God understands what you are going through. Please find comfort in the wonderful provision that He makes for widows. (James 1:27)

My cousin Maury was a kind, elegant and gracious man who led a long and remarkable life. He was always so kind and supportive of my mother, and made great efforts to stay in touch with the many cousins and other relatives throughout his life. My heart goes out to his wife, sisters, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren for their loss, but I also celebrate a life fully lived.
