    I am so sorry for the loss of Christine!. Obviously, I have been away from Camden Point, but I remember her and the family from church, and seeing her around town & baseball field and she was always one of the sweetest ladies ever. God rest her soul!!

    My heart went out to your family for the loss of Christine. I loss my mother over 10+ years ago. But I found comfort in these few scriptures. I hope they find comfort for you during this difficult time.

    Psalms 37:9,-11,29 9 For evil men will be done away with,j
    But those hoping in Jehovah will possess the earth.k

    10 Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more;l
    You will look at where they were,
    And they will not be there.m
    11 But the meek will possess the earth,n
    And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance
    29 The righteous will possess the earth,i
    And they will live forever on it.j

    Please look up these scriptures in your own copy of the Bible. It will give you confidence you will see Christine again under righteous condition where he is no longer sick but restored youth and healthy.
