Words cannot express the sorrow that I am positive the family is experiencing at this time. Always trust in Jehovah; go to him in prayer for comfort and strength; Isaiah 61:1, 2. Remember, Uncle Albert is no longer in any pain; Eccl 9:5. Look forward to the resurrection, when we have the hope to see him again; Acts 24:15. And have faith in His promise at Revelation 21:1-4 when pain, suffering, and death will be no more. We love you, we are here for you, and we will continue to mention you all in our prayers.

May Jehovah the God of all comfort sustain you ; By meditating on God’s promises found in the Bible you can find real hope and strength to keep going during this difficult time. Revelation 21:3-5

The one thing in this life that is so difficult to fathom, and so difficult to endure is the loss of a loved one. Nevertheless, earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. Praise God for the BLESSED HOPE!!! Moreover, I am so thankful for all of the fond and beautiful memories that I have of my Uncle Albert. He blessed us all with love and joy, thereby, making him dear to all our hearts. May we all lean heavily upon the Lord to endure this difficult time in our lives.

With heartfelt sympathy,
