Please accept my expression of sympathy during this time of sorrow. When we lose a loved one in death, the pain, the grief, and the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times we can find comfort in the scriptural promises at Isaiah 25:8 and Acts 24:15.

So Sorry to hear of your loss , May the God of all comfort give you peace and comfort at this most difficult time. Please read 2 Corinthians 1:2-4 and John 5:28,29 Where Jesus gives us a wonderful hope , that is soon to be realized. That is the hope of the resurrection. What a blessing for your family and mine.

Jabari was a really nice and silly guy in high school. I can still see his big smile as if we were walking the hallways today. He will be truly missed.
