To the Family,
May you find comfort in knowing that God is “near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.” (Psalm 34;18) He has promised to soon “swallow up death forever…and wipe the tears from all faces.” (Isaiah 25;8) Take care,
Has been many many years since I have seen Jesse, remember her smile when I would see her in Ole’s. Was kept up todate on how she was doing by Sherry. I am so sorry for your loss,take comfort in each other and know she is still with you
With deepest sympathy from the Asher and Koumaris families.
