You have our sincere sympathy in the loss of Jerry. May God bring you peace by His amazing grace & through the love all of you share together for him.
You will be in our thoughts and prayers. May you find comfort in the memories of Jerry & consolation in Jesus's promise to us that one day we will all be together again. God bless.
Jesus Comforts His Disciples John 14:1-4 Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.
Rest in Heavenly Peace Jerry.
