Please except my condolences. May you find comfort in knowing that your dear one is safe in the memory of God, who will remember every detail about him and bring him back again. John 5:28, 29 gives this assurance.

My deepest condolences to Arthur’s family. He was always a someone who was kind and thoughtful.
Phyllis, you may remember me as Pinky Cohen.
As I am 92, I always think of the bygone years and it is always sad to hear of the loss of a teenaged
friend.
