I'm so sorry for your loss! I have lost so many members of my family. Losing loved ones is overwhelmingly painful. One thing that brings me some comfort is what the Bible says at Isaiah 25:8 "He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces." We look to God through Jesus and his Kingdom to do this. My wife and I hope you find comfort as you endure your loss.

Who could ever forget Robbie. I cannot even count the number of conversations we had together standing in front of the meat counter at Kroger. All it took was eye contact and the conversation was ready to go. Some of those conversations were even around our antics when we were kids. I always looked forward to seeing him. He will be missed but always remembered.
