In December of 2022, I attended two funerals, one for the father of a dear friend and one for the mother of a dear friend. As I listened to the stories of each of their lives, I learned that they experienced many blessings and hardships. The one thing that stood out more than anything is that they firmly believed in the Lord. They left a legacy of faith for their families and friends. 

To my dear friends, I extend my deepest sympathy.

In our lives, we also experience blessings and hardships. May knowing that those who have gone before us kept their faith in the Lord be an encouragement to each of us to keep the faith.

With love,

Patty
