Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
My husband and I would like to extend our sinncere condolences to the family and many dear friends of your beloved Clara. The grief felt when we lose a loved one may seem unbearable at times. At such times, we have gone to the comfort of God\\\’s Word, for he too, feels our pain when one we love dies. (Psalm 34:18) May you also find comfort in the memories you all shared and made together-cherish them close to your hearts always.
