Luke 23:43
Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Rest in peace sweet friend.


Hugs from the beach,

Your Bible verse says it all. Death is not the beginning of a sorrowful time, but the beginning of eternal life. Isn't this what we all are striving for? Prayers for peace for his family and friends.

Well, this must be the week for sadness. My mom's friend lost her battle on Monday night. This is the last of my mom's friend. This wonderful lady turned 91 two weeks ago...mama will be 91 in June.

So sorry to hear about your dear friend. I will remember you and his family in my prayers.

My prayers are with you, his friends, and his family. It is not easy to lose people to this most hated disease. I am so very sorry.

I'm sorry for your losses. Sending thoughts and prayers your way.

Seems like so much sorrow and heartache everywhere, for everyone. Monday, two St. Petersburg (FL) police officers were shot and killed in the line of duty. My hubby worked with both of them before he retired from St. Pete PD a few years ago. When ANY police officer is injured or killed, all officers and their families "bleed" too, but this tragedy has struck way too close to home for us.

We must all try to keep the faith.

My thoughts and prayers ..all I can say is that Carl is in a place where he no longer suffers; he will be listening to the most beautiful music and be surroundded by peace and the softest golden light. (this is what I remember from my coma ... so I know there is a heaven and a God.) I hope that helps some how to know he is there. Blessings ..HHL

So sorry for the loss of your friend. I'm currently reading the book "90 Minutes in Heaven" By Don Piper. It's a good book for believers and I know your dear friend is in heaven and not suffering any longer.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and George, Carl's family, and your community of friends. Here are the lyrics to a sweet song by David Ruis:

"There will come a day when I lay my burdens down.
There will be no weeping on the other side.
For all those who wait, there will be a righteous crown,
There will be no weeping on the other side.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
There will be no weeping on the other side."

He's alive, and in perfect health! What a blessing to know this.
