I am the bookkeeper at the apartments where he lived, and always enjoyed his visit to my office to use the phone. My heart aches for his dad and sisters, whom are all very sweet people. My God give all of you the strength you need to make it through these difficult days ahead. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you.
May you find comfort in the memories that are yours to cherish always, and strength in the companionship of those who share your loss…. I have learned never to underestimate the healing power we all have. It is always there to be used for the highest good. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. (Matthew 5:4) May it be a source of inner strength to know that there’s a loving God watching over you, and that, throughout this time of need, He’ll stay close by your side. I have fought the fine fight, I have run the course to the finish, I have observed the faith.-2Timothy 4:7. As for me, I will lie down that I may sleep; I shall certainly awake, for Jehovah himself keeps supporting me. -Psalms 3:5
I am Buddy’s daughter. Thank you all for your thoughts and prays. My family and I really appreciate it.
Pete, I send my sincere sympathy to you and all of your family. Please know all of you are in my thoughts and prayers. Von
