Condolences for the family of “Pastor Robert Perez”
Angele,
Justin and I are very sorry for your loss. I didn’t know Robert all that well, but he was always smiling and a blessing to serve with on the worship team when he came. What I do remember is how happy he was when he came to Engage and told everyone that you two had gotten married. He was glowing, he was so happy. I don’t know why things like this happen, but we will pray for you, and for your family. We were unable to attend the service Saturday, because Justin and I both had work. We will pray that you will be able to find peace.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
Continue to rely on God and know that he hears your prayers, because he cares for you. Truly sorry for your loss.
