Earlier today

My life will never be the same without you. You were always so proud to let others know that I was your brother, just as I was proud to tell the world that you were my sister.

I find comfort in knowing of your deep faith and personal relationship with God. I believe you are now at peace-free from the cares, struggles, and pains of this earthly life. You have crossed the River Jordan and now rest safely in the bosom of Abraham.

As we grieve this loss, we ask that you send some ANGELIC LOVE from above to comfort the family, giving us strength as we walk through the sorrow of your passing.
