Although our hearts are broken with your absence here on earth, we celebrate and rejoice with you that your race is run and that you are now in the presence of the Lamb of Heaven. What joy you must now know as you have broken the bonds of this world and enter Heaven’s glory. We are assured of your eternal dwelling place.
