Charle and Donna,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your mother.
Charles, I saw so many times how you were always there for both your parents and such a good son.
Sending prayers to you all.
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at John 5:28,29 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice, and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment".
sorry we couldn't be there with you at this difficult time. glad you made it in time to be with her . be safe on the way home,everything here is fine,raining as i write this note.
Sending prayers for the whole family that you will find peace and comfort in knowing there is no more pain for your loved one.
I am so sorry for your loss. I too have recently lost a dear loved one in death. This loss can seem so overwelming. Fortunately, I found comfort in God's promise that one day I would see my dear loved one again.(John 5:28,29)By petitioning our heavenly Father in prayer, he will give you the peace and comfort you need to get through your trials. (Philippians 4:6,7) May you and your family find comfort at this difficult time.
My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Mrs. Clark. You all will remain in my prayers during this transition of life without Mrs. Clark.
T. C. , Donna, Charles & families,
I'm so sorry for your loss. You all are in my thoughts & prayers during the difficult days ahead.
