  17. To the family, I am sorry for your loss: Jesus told us those who mourn will be comforted at Matthew 5:4. Also the Bible tells us at John 5:28-29 that we have the hope to see our loved ones whom we have lost in death again.

  18. To the family, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Orville Roy Shelton was my father-in-law for 20 years and I always thought James favored him. We visited a few times in the bank where I worked for many years. May the Lord bring you comfort and precious memories. God bless you.
