My husband and I would like to express our sincere condolences to the family and friends of your beloved Rebecca. We wanted to share with you comfort from God's Word, found in John 5:28,29. Here we are given the wonderful hope of the ressurection of our dear loved ones. The God of comfort also reassures us that he is near to those broken at heart and to those crushed in spirit he saves. ( Psalm 34:18) May you draw comfort in the many loving memories you all made and shared together, cherish them in your hearts always and her memory will line on in each and every one of you, who loved her.
