We were so sorry to hear about Davids' passing. He helped us so many times with things around our house. He always stayed busy. We pray that the Lord will wrap his comforting arms around you all during this very hard time in your lives...He will be missed...

I'm so sorry to hear of David’s passing. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: 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 hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
