I am so deeply saddened by your loss. Please know that you are never alone. We are assured in the Holy Scriptures at Psalms 34:18 that God is near to those broken at heart. He will never leave you but will help soothe your aching heart. Keep those most precious minutes close to your heart. Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Chris, Helen, and Princess,
We are members of Faith Community A/G, and just this morning our church secretary, Tina Kester, mentioned in Sunday School that your son had passed away.

We are sure he will be dearly missed; please know that you are in our prayers at this time of sorrow. May our God of all comfort, comfort you at this time, In His Precious Name, John and Cherry Uhler
