I was so sorry to hear about Mr. Holman’s passing. I always thought a lot of Mr. Holman and he was so pleasant to be around. I hate that I didn’t know until today. My thoughts are with you all.
I offer the deep condolences of my family and I. Life is never fair and it seems that bad things always happen to good people. One thing that has always provided me comfort is the scriptures. Revelation 21:3,4 speaks of a time in the very near future when death will be done away with and we all can enjoy life as God intended for us to origninally. I know that this does not take away the pain fo loosing your dear loved one. I hope thogh it provides a measure of hope for the future. Please continue to look to the Bible for the strength needed to endure this most difficult time.
