Sincere condolences to the family. I am so very sorry for your loss. May God provide the necessary peace and comfort to your family and friends during this difficult time. Please remember these words of encouragement from the Bible: “Jesus plainly told her: I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life.” —John 11:20-25.
Sad to say goodbye got my dear brother. I have precious memories of our childhood when we were best buds and played together. He was my partner in crime and I’ll always remember the fun times we had together.
