    To My Friend Donna,
    I’m it is with my deepest sympathy that I am so sorry to hear that your father has passed and he is now resting peacefully in heaven watching over you and his loved one’s and is no longer suffering nor do you have to keep wondering if he’s in any pain,may God comfort you and your family during this time of sorrow but also the celebration of his life.


  5. Cheryl condolence:

    My heart goes out to the family! Longevity is certainly a blessing, and death at any age is too soon. Sickness & death is unnatural and not a part of God’s original purpose, so for good reason the Bible calls death an enemy- one that God through Jesus Christ will soon eliminate (1 Corinthians 15:26). May this hope bring the family comfort during this difficult time.
