Written in the Beatitudes are these words: 11Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted." Truly these words ring true today. Your presence, the beautiful words spoken and sung, and your prayers have truly been comforting. The family expresses its sincere appreciation to the many friends who have been a source of strength throughout our loved one's illness and our period of bereavement. May God bless each of you in his divine way.
