I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. May God comfort and give you peace during the hard times. Remember all the great memories you have with him. No one can take those away from you. It also makes him closer to you during those times. I will pray for all the family and friends. Take one day at a time. It gets a little easier and the fond memories will continue to help with that.
So sorry to hear about your dad! I know how hard it is to lose your parents! Just know that no matter what they will always be there for you!
Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know that they are happy. We are sorry for your loss.
Darlene. Thank you for your kind words. Love you Anderson family
A special father and grandfather. We will always love you.
Love,

I am sorry for your loss, please accept my sincere condolences. I hope the family will find some comfort and strength in Jesus promise of the earthly resurrection(Acts 24:15)and the renewed Paradise earth, where death will be no more and no family will mourn the death of a loved one.-Revelation 21:3,4;John 5:28,29;Luke 23:43. May GOD(Psalms 83:18)grant you peace and comfort now, during this grievous time.-Matthew 5:4.
