Dear Lord,
I see you have called another faithful son home. Thank you for the fellowship times we had together learning your word. Thank you for the fun times; golf cart parades, vacationing in Belize, talks about guns and the crazy future of this world. Thank you for Frannie and placing she and Pete in my life. I know you will walk and carry Frannie though Pete’s coming home. Please wrap your loving arms around Frannie and the rest of the family and dear friends. Please help us to support each other and console each other with this huge loss.
Amen
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
