Sending condolences and praying for the families. We're sorry to hear about the passing of our first cousin and are so hurt and filled with grief. Rest in peace cuh and we're going to miss you dearly. The last time I talked to you I were asking you how were you feeling and you said fine, but the last thing I said to you before I left, I told you that I didn't think that you were feeling too good. We talked about back in the days and had some good laughs. You were like a big brother to me.I'm so heartbroken and this wound that were reopened three years ago won't heal, salt are continuing to be put in it, losing two first cousins back to back are taking a toll on me. I haven't rested well or had a dry eye since you passed, these tears won't let me write, but I take comfort in knowing that I had the opportunity to spend some time with you. I'm missing you, but I'll find a way to get through. Continue to rest Cuh. 🕊️🕊️
There is a bridge that takes us home, We cannot walk around When we see God's outstretched hands, We know we are homeward bound. We must not grieve when loved ones leave, Only God knows what is best When our work on Earth is done, We must cross the bridge of rest.
With Deepest Sympathy, Dinah Giles & Reese Family
