To the family of Gail, you have my deepest sympathy in your loss. The death of a loved one is never easy because God has “put eternity in their heart.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11) At Revelation 21:4 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.” May you rely on God’s promises to get you through this most difficult period.
With warm thoughts and prayers for the Lane family. Continue to rely on God, because he hears your prayers, he cares for you. Thinking of you all.
Morton family
To the Lane family, our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you during this trying time. May God remain with you.
