We are sad to hear your loss. There are too many losses today, but the loss of a father is most poignant. May he Rest In Peace and May his family rejoice in his life.

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Herb. He was a fond part of our childhood memories. May all you find comfort in the memory of him and the joy he brought to your life. 1st Corinthians 15:26 promises us that some day we will see that “….the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing.” May these words bring you peace of heart as you endure this loss.
