Condolences
I am so sorry for what your family is going through. It is heartbroken having to mourn the death of a loved one. In time of sorrow the Bible has always been great source of comfort to me. Therefore, may you find hope and comfort in the words quoted at Revelation 21:4 “He(God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Soon, by means of God’s Kingdom, no one will ever fall prey of these ruthless enemies, such as sickness and death (Isaiah 33:24; 1 Corinthians 15:26). On the contrary we will welcome our loved ones on an earthly paradise.
Deepest Sympathy
Dear Family – I am so sorry for your loss. Gary was a wonderful man that I had the honor of working with for many years, I still tell his stories today and have a good laugh. He will be missed and never forgotten. Tana Hicks Tedrick

My thoughts are with you
Dear Mary and family, I am so sorry to hear of Gary’s passing. You were wonderful neighbors, and Mike always enjoyed talking with Gary when you lived next-door. I remember when we both stopped by see baby David! May the Lord bless you and keep you, may he make his face to shine upon you, and may you experience his peace. Much love!
Deepest Sympathy
My deepest and heartfelt sympathy upon learning of Gary’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with his family during these troubling times. Gary and I were close friends during our high school and college days and I enjoyed his company and friendship very much. I moved from the Cincinnati area after graduation and we kind of lost touch with each other although he was always in my mind. Gary was a very lovable guy and a true friend. May he rest in peace. Again, my deepest condolences, John Schneider
