Condolence: I am truly sorry to learn of John's passing. May the God of all comfort, comfort and sustain your family during this grievous time. God has promised in his Holy Word, He "is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit." (Psalms 34:18) So, "throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7) May reflecting on this bring you a measure of solace.

Condolence: Jeannie, I can't fully tell you how blessed I was to get to know Johnnie. His love of the Lord, his kindness and his incredible, positive outlook were all clearly evident whenever I saw him. I find his example of how to live as a Christian man very challenging. Our men's group will not be the same without him; he will be sorely missed. You are in my prayers and the prayers of our other members. And while we mourn now, we look forward to the day we see Johnnie in heaven and he runs like he has wings on his feet. May God bless you and carry you through this difficult time.
