Jo Myles TX April 12, 2018
"My sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one. Find strength and comfort from God. 2 Corinthians  1:3, 4  it describes God as "the God of all comfort who comfort us in all our trials".  This promise assures the family that by turning to God you can receive help during this difficult time.  The  bible also promises that soon death will be no more Revelation 21:3, 4  and the hope of a resurrection John 5:28, 29."

"I'm so sorry for your loss. All I could think about were all the fun times we used to have with the softball team gang, trips to Long Pine....back in our younger, crazier days. Linda, Gary, and Butch, please know that my thoughts are with you and your families in this difficult time."
