The loss of your father is something that no one could ever articulate feelings about. We know that God will help you through this difficult time if you totally put your trust in Him and believe that He is the powerful creator and writer of our universe. The Bible says that to be absent from the body is to be present with Christ. How awesome that Cecil got to spend Christmas in Heaven. Our loss is indeed Heaven's gain. Be comforted in knowing God's plan is for Cecil's family to meet him in Heaven.
