"It's very hard to bear the loss of someone so dear. And although there is little that one can say or do to take away all your pain, please know that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many. May every loving memory be like the warming rays of sun which help to bring some comfort when the pain and sorrow comes. And may you continue to assure your heart that not even death can separate us from God's love that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38, 39; Revelation 21:3,4; Matthew 5:5.. May God grant you comfort and peace. With heartfelt condolences."
