Dear Amy and Family,
I am sorry for your loss, but I am rejoicing in my spirit for Fred. He is now where we all will be one day as long as Jesus is our Savior. Take comfort in these words from God’s word:
Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Fred and I had many adventures, laughs and good times together growing up. I am sorry his life ended so soon but I know he is rejoicing with his dad in heaven. We wish to express sympathy to Amy and the kids for their loss.
Stacy, Wanda and Alex Griffin
