    Myrna,
    May you and your family experience the comfort and peace that comes from the Lord.
    As the Apostle Paul wrote in the New Testament, “We are confident, yes, well pleased
    rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.” Ed is now at home
    with the Lord and even though we mourn his absence, we can rest in the hope of
    Heaven.
