May your family and friends find comfort in God’s promise to “swallow up death forever… and wipe away the tears from all faces” (Isaiah 25:8). Along with the assurance of a time soon when “death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4. (Acts 24:15). My sincere condolences to your family.

Prayers to the family of a very good man. I remember his kindness to all of his family and friends. Gib was a very caring man. He had a gentle spirit.
