Dear Aunt Mary, We are so very sorry. No words can possibly express how much you'll miss Uncle Norman's laugh and smile and daily presence. I KNOW that YOU KNOW you will see him again soon, but for the moment, the vapor that is this life will seem like an eternity.This is the paradox of profound grief mixed with unspeakable joy. Possibly, this is a mere hint of what the Apostle means when he reminds the church with a gentle caution, “to not grieve as do the rest who have no hope” (1 Thess 4:13). HOPE from the very One who gave His life, so that we might live eternally with Him. My heart aches for you... and we send our love and prayers!
