Condolences
Dear Dianne,
Dear Dianne,
We pray for you and your dear family right now as you experience the great loss of your beloved, Jim. And yet, we celebrate the fact that he is now healed and with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! We are so thankful for your example of more than fifty years of loving devotion to one another. Jim was a sweet man, and we were very privileged to know him. Know that we will continue to cover you in prayer as you walk through this journey of life. Psalm 33:18, "But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is his unfailing love." Praising God for the hope -- the settled assurance -- that we will be be reunited in the future!
With our love, Sue and Tom
Thoughts and Prayers
Dianne, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your loved ones during this very difficult time.
Dear Dianne,
Dear Dianne,
Our hearts are heavy as we grieve alongside you and your family at the loss of your faithful friend and love. While we are reassured that Jim is no longer experiencing the earthly restrictions which his illness placed upon him, we selfishly long for more days on this earth with our brother...your spouse, father, and grandfather. It is difficult to find words that you don't already know apart from expressing the deep respect we had for Jim, as a servant of our country, and a servant of our Lord. We will miss his smiling face and quiet ways, but smile knowing that he has run the face God planned for him and is now reaping his reward while he waits for you and his loved ones to join him at just the right time. Hugs and prayers to you.
