    Brother Drew and Family:

    We are saddened to hear of the loss of your sister. We are praying for you and for your family.

    In your time of sorrow please remember "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die." John 12:25-26

    For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands. (2 Corinthians 5:1).

    May you be comforted by these words, as we extend our prayers, deepest sympathy, and love to the entire Reese family.

    The Dukes Family
    Lorton, Virginia
