Saying Goodbye To You Has Not Been Easy, But Knowing I Will See You Again Gives Me Hope. You Were Such A Competitor In All That You Did And That Includes Your Battle With Cancer. You Would Say I Am Good When We All Knew You Were Hiding More. We Know You Did Not Want Us To Worry But You Were Always In Our Prayers. I Will Remember Playing Corn Hole At Neil’S As We Were On The Same Team And We Both Wanted To Win. That Is One Thing We Had In Common We Loved To Compete And Win. I Love You Milt And One Day I Will See You Face To Face Again.

Saying Goodbye To Someone We Love Is Heartbreaking. May You Find Comfort In Knowing That The Heartbreak Of Loss Is Noticed By Our Heavenly Father. Jeremiah 29:11 ” For I Well Know The Thoughts That I Am Thinking Toward You,’ Declares Jehovah, €˜Thoughts Of Peace, And Not Of Calamity, To Give You A Future And A Hope.” He Promises To Very Soon Bring About This “Hope” By Bringing All Our Dear Loved Ones Back To Life Through A Resurrection And Reuniting Them With Us Forever Again.
Isaiah 26:19 “Your Dead Will Live. Awake And Shout Joyfully, You Residents In The Dust! For Your Dew Is As The Dew Of The Morning, And The Earth Will Let Those Powerless In Death Come To Life.” This Means That We Can Have The Heartwarming Hope That Someday, In God’S New World, We Will Be Reunited With Loved Ones Who Have Fallen Asleep In Death.
