We are sorry to hear about the passing of your loved one. Death may cast a shadow over you as you go about your daily life. Your love ones death brings you face-to-face with the fact that they are gone too soon. While you call to mind the happy memories, you may also remember the enormity of the loss. But, Do not let your hearts be troubled. (John 14:27) May you find comfort as the the last enemy, death will be done away with. (1 Corinthians 15:25, 26). Let this time be a tribute to their wonderful life. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

I am so sorry for your loss. Becky was my best friend during our days at NU. She was a great person and even though we had lost track of each other over the years, she will be truly missed. We had some great times and went to prom together, worked at Happy Chef together and she was my maid of honor when I got married. May God be with her family now and in the days to come. Praying for you all.
