Sincere Condelences to the Besler Family, Relatives and Friends from the Abbinante Family
The Abbinante family (Franco, Rosanna and kids) would like to express our most sincere condolences to the Family of Eugene Bessler, Relatives and Friends.
And would like to share this reflection:
“In our end is our beginning, in our time, infinity;
In our doubt there is believing, in our life eternity.
In our death, a resurrection at the last, a victory
Unrevealed until its season
Something on only God can see”
( from Natalie Sleeth 1986 )
