Dear Tom and Family,
Please accept this message of sympathy upon the death of dear Marta, your wife and mother. We have prayed these past many, many months for the strength and patient endurance that Marta suffered carrying her cross. Now she has joined the risen Lord and enjoys Eternal Life.

It was our great privilege to be with you and Marta from the beginning, on your wedding day, and many times over these years.

We regret that we can't be with you this weekend because we are in Florida. Know of our prayers and any way that we can support you in the coming months.

Together in Christ,

Dear family of Marta Davy,
I feel your pain as well as God does. God can rid the pain, anger, and sadness that we feel when we lose someone we love. May you find comfort in Luke 18:27, knowing all things are possible with God and he can help you during this time of distress.

Best wishes,
Aubriel C.
