My deepest condolences and sympathy to the Wallace family. Deeply sorry to hear of Mr Wallace passing. Death is never easy and we can all look forward to the time when,"no resident will say I'm sick based on Isaiah 33:24. Do take comfort in knowing that Jehovah promises us at 2 Corinthians 1:3 he is the God (Jehovah) of tender mercies and the God of all comfort. He is closed to all those broken hearted...Psalms 34:18. Keep all the beautiful memories close to heart.

Rest in Peace until we meet again. Pat
