Sorry for your loss Eccles: 7:1-2 "A good name is better than good oil, and the day of death is better than the day of birth. Better to go to the house of mourning than to the house of feasting, for that is the end of every man, and the living should take it to heart" Look forward with eyes of faith to better times in God's new system Rev 21-3-4 “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” - Posted by: Larry Caruk (lived in Pine River) on: Jul 02, 2017
