Dear William, Bernard, Monique, Telisha and family:
My heart goes out to each of you during this very sad, but joyous occasion, sad, because you
won't be able to see Harry's face
on this side again, but joyous be-
cause as Christians you'll see him
again on the other side. Praise God
that Harry came to know the Lord
before he left earth. You will not
grieve as those who have no hope,
but as those who know that "in that
great getting up morning" there will be a family reunion like never
before. My prayers, thoughts, and
love are with each of you as you
go through this very difficult time. It won't be easy, but each day, you'll find that God has given
you a little more strength than you
had the day before. I know what it's like to lose a father, and it
hurts for a long time, but, as I
said, God is there for you, making
it easier to bear. He sees your
tears, feels your pain, and knows
just how each one of you feels. He
will deal with each one of you ac-
cording to your individual needs.
He's wonderful that way. Just let
Him carry you and lean on Him when
it seems like it's just too hard to
go through this. Remember, God's
"got your backs" and He's there,
even late in the midnight hour when
you can't sleep. He will wipe away
your tears and He'll see to it that
you don't lose your joy. "Weeping
may endure for a night, but joy
comes in the morning."
May God continue to bless and
keep each of you in His care.
I love you much!!!
Aunt Anita
