I am so sorry for your loss, please accept my sincere condolences at this time. Something that I have found to be a great source of comfort are the thoughts expressed in the Bible at John 5:28,29 where we see that there is going to be a resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in death. Losing someone is never easy but I hope that you find comfort from the scriptures and the promises that God holds out for us and our dead loved ones.

My sincere condolence goes out to the Sechkar family. Fred and I worked together at Nobil shoes at the Midway mall many many years ago.
