  6. James,
    Bless you James and your family. I am sorry to hear of your loss, but I am also rejoicing with you that your loved one has gone to home to meet her King. I did not know her, but I know enough about you to know that she must have been a Godly woman.

    I will never forget the way you served our mutual friend, and I imagine you learned that loyalty from your mother because of the tenderness and commitment of your care for him.

    We are all thinking of you and praying for a beautiful spirit-lead worship service tomorrow.

    Warm Regards,
