I'm so sorry for your loss. The pain and grief of loosing someone we love can seem unbearable. Something that can be comforting is God's word. As 1 Corinthians 1:3&4 says; ...the God of all comfort, who comforts all in our trials...The Bible helps us to understand how God feels about death. Isaiah 25:8 says God will defeat our enemy death, and it will be gone forever. -More comforting truths can be found in a book called "What Does the Bible Really Teach". I hope you will look into this subject further. I know it will bring you comfort and peace as it did me.

Thoughts and prayers are with you all today and in the days to come. Uncle Larry was one of a kind and he will be missed. One of my favorite memories involved a reunion, an apron and Larry feeding us all and even cleaning up afterwards.

I really enjoyed playing bridge with Larry and you, Rosanna. I also enjoyed our christian conversations. Larry was a very good man and will be greatly missed. I am sorry I will be unable to attend services, as I will be in Austin assisting my daughter's children while she is in the hospital.
