Debbie and family:

So sorry to hear of the loss of your stepfather. May God bless and comfort you in this difficult time.

I am praying that God will touch and comfort your mother in this very difficult time for her. I hope she will soon be out of the hospital and feeling better. She has been through so much already, and with this, she needs extra comfort from the Lord.

God Bless each of you.

Sincerely,
Katie
