Prayers for you and your family. My Deepest condolences.
I am so sorry in the loss of your dear brother. I pray that during this time, golden memories will flood your consciousness, happy times that you and he were together as boys. I pray you remember times when you plotted together in some important childhood scheme, of a time when you and he were daredevils and were lucky to escape with your lives. Please remember a time or two when you fought each other and also several times when you banded together against mutual foes.
I pray you are appreciated for helping his wife during this time. I pray she realizes the strong arm borne of a mutual love for Mark.
I pray also, as I do for those experiencing grief that you know the height and breadth and depth of Our Father’s love, that you are reminded that when told by Mary of her brother’s death, Jesus simply wept with her.
Know that we care, although, as I told Spunky, we’ve not yet met.
