Dear Tim and family,
We are so sorry for loss. We pray that the Lord surrounds each one of you with love and peace. May the Lord bless and comfort you today and in the days to come . Hugs
The beautiful words of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 teach us there is a time for everything. A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away. There are occasions in life when we must hang on--grip the hand of God tight and struggle fiercely to hold on to His promises. Then at the end of our lives, there is a time to let go of the struggles and simply fall into the arms of our Heavenly Father. That is what
Tom did last Wednesday. May God surround you Becky, and all who love him His love and give you strength, comfort, and peace during this difficult time.
Sending love and prayers.
I have so much love for your family. Tom was a good man , I loved to see him come in the store every morning for his special biscuit and treats for the dogs.. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, in the time.
