"Please accept my sincere condolences. During this time of great loss I hope you are comforted by the memories shared with your dear loved one as well as God's promise found at Acts 24:15 which says, "And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection" May this promise provide you with comfort now and in the days to come."
