Linda and Family, I am so sorry for the lose of your father. Please know I will be praying for all of ya'll and if you need anything, please let me know.
To the Swanson family, I extend my condolence. Death of a loved one is never easy for us to overcome. However, God promises us that Cecil will be able to live again right here on earth and we know, God does not lie. (Isaiah 26:19; Numbers 23:19)
My condolences to the family on the loss of your loved one, Cecil. May you find comfort in the love and memories shared together. Our heavenly Father is the God of all comfort and He will help you through this sad and difficult time, for Psalm 34:18 tells us "Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit." May these thoughts bring you peace.
Linda and Family, Just a note to say you and your family are in our prayers.
My prayers and thoughts are with your family.
May God's peace be with you during your time of bereavement.
Melanie
