Although we have never met, I wanted to offer my deepest sympathies. You can turn to the Holy Scriptures for help. For Psalms 34:18 assures us that God is near to those broken at heart and saves those crushed in spirit. He will certainly comfort your heart.

Dear Bob and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss but you are in our thoughts and prayers.
We found this in a book of reflections called Still Waters;
In times of darkness, faith sees…
In times of silence,
faith hears…
In times of doubt,
faith hopes…
And in times of sorrow,
faith heals.
With love and peace,
Herb Herman and Connie Jones
