To my classmate Rebecca and Family...I am sorry to hear of your loss. May the good Lord strengthen and keep you in His arms as you go through this tunnel of darkness. Keep your eyes unto the hills, lean and depend on His care. His light will comfort and guide you through. Your days may be desolate, but not in despair if you put all your trust in Him.
