Losing someone we love is never easy to accept, especially when it 
happens unexpectantly We find ourselves searching for a reason for 
what happened and struggling to make some sense of it all. 
God may not give us all the answers we seek, but He gives us support 
through friends like you. We, the family of Beatrice Sweeper Palmer, 
are ever so grateful for your acts of kindness and caring during our 
bereavement. We thank you.
