Dear La’Chris,
My thoughts are with you and your family. Here is my prayer for you…
Thy name is my healing, O my God, and remembrance of Thee is my remedy. Nearness to Thee is my hope, and love for Thee is my companion. Thy mercy to me is my healing and my succor in both this world and the world to come. Thou, verily, art the All-Bountiful, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
Dear La’Chris & Family,
My sincerest condolences go out to you and your family on the sudden loss of your mother. No words can take away your pain, but please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
While I have never met your mother, you have shared with me your stories of her love and kindness she gave to you, in part sharing a part of her with me. For that, I am grateful.
May God’s love and peace guide you through the difficult days ahead.
Love & God’s peace,
