Dear Jim and family,

So very sorry to learn of your loss. June was a very special lady and her love of God, and for her family, extended to include all who came to know her. May God be near and comfort you all.

Dear James,
Our deepest sympathy on loss of June. While it has been our job over the last few days to care for you, getting to know your family has been a blessing to us. Thank you for allowing us to serve you.

Isaiah 51:11 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

June, Thank you for being a good friend. I enjoyed your enthusiasm and happy spirit. I'm sorry that that you had to suffer at times on this earth with your health. Even though you were suffering, you continually showed concern for others.

Jim, You are a good husband and exhibited an abundance of love for your wife. June picked a good one. Thank you both for your friendship.
