Dear Garret Family, I am sorry for your loss, and would like to share an encouraging scripture with the family. The scripture is found at Acts 24:15. Here we read of a promise God has made to bring our loved ones back to life. This is a promise that many people look forward to and find comfort in. I hope you find this message comforting as well, during this difficult time.
