To my Dearest Gwen!
My deepest condolences to you and your family!
I know how it feels losing loved ones, the emptiness inside and the pain knowing they’re not there physically.
One thing I also know for sure is LIFE after death called ETERNAL LIFE!!
I just lost my brother also from San Diego Ca. in March and I know he’s with my Mom and Dad now!
My thoughts and prayers to you and your family!
Praying for the family. RIP brother. May God give the family Peace and strength
