Freda and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Orville was such a nice person and I always enjoyed seeing him in the clinic. Y'all are in my prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss, I know how hard it is to lose a sibling. I will miss my big hug every day at JCH&R. Even as ill as he was his smile was something special, lighting up his whole face. It spoke so well of a kind and gentle spirit. May the grace of our Lord help to ease your pain and let you not just mourn his passing, but be thankful for the joys of having had him in your life.
Freda, if I cannot make it tomorrow, I hope I will see you again, your friendship means a lot to me.
We are keeping you in our prayers. Sorry for your loss Freda.Take care and sending a big hug your way. We love you.
You will be missed so much I will be praying for the family and friends.
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4
(3) "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. (4)
And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".
I would like to express my deepest sympathy to family and friends. May all your good memories outweigh your sadness during this difficult time. (Isaiah 25:8)
