Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I am sorry to learn of your family sorrow. The death of a loved one is difficult. If I may, I’d like to share scripture found in your Bible that may help. Please, read John 6:40, 44 and Ps. 36:9.
Dear Eleanore and family – I am writing on behalf of myself, and my mom, Shirley Knollenberg. We are saddened by the news of Les’ passing, but we know that you and your children will draw strength from each other and the legacy of love, honor & integrity that Les has left with you all. We have very fond memories of our Ascension church family and the activities we shared together. We know you will find peace in your faith.
My sympathies go out to your family at this hard time. I work with Leah and enjoy her company; the best to all of you.
We are sorry for your loss. I so enjoyed seeing your parents at the office. Rick sends his sympathies as well for your loss.
