Dear Ones:
So sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. Itchr(39)s so difficult when they mean so very much to us! As much as we sometimes hate to admit it, ofttimes Death is the Great Deliverer from further pain and suffering, which we wouldnchr(39)t want our loved one to have to endure. The hardest part about loving is that it makes saying "so long" or "good bye" that much more difficult. But oh...the reunion will be so sweet. Thatchr(39)s where faith and trust in the Lord becomes your strong arm to lean upon; take advantage of His Presence and peace. Let Him carry you over this long, dark, and dreary part of the road of life.
There really are no words of encouragement for a time like this, other than to stop from time to time to reflect back upon all the precious memories that youchr(39)ve stored up in the vast repositories of your hearts!
Itchr(39)s the wonderfully funny and tender moments that we will have to pull out from time to time to get us over those "rough" times. Draw strength and encouragement from those!
Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers at this time.
