My heartfelt sympathy in the loss of your beloved Mrs. Steele. May it help you to know that the hearts of others are deeply touched by your loss. Cherish the dear memories close to your heart.
(Psalms 34:18)
Vickie, Jim, Scott & Clint,
I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May your hearts be comforted in this time of grief. I love you.
Just a few words to let you know that you are being thought of during this difficult time. As you continue to cope, may you find comfort in knowing that our loving heavenly Father is near to those with a broken heart. Very soon our hearts will be mended when this scripture at Revelation 21:4 is fulfilled. Imagine a time when your mother will once again be with you, and you will no longer have any reason to cry; That truly is a beautiful promise and may it bring you peace as you reflect on the good memories you shared with your precious mother and grandmother.
