Saying I'm sorry seems so very inadequate at times like this. Please know that you and all your family are in my prayers. :ghug

I know there are no words that can take away your pain right now but knowing that he is in a better place, a place where there is no pain does bring comfort to those left behind.

I will keep you all in my Prayers,

God Be With You,

May he rest peacefully in the arms of God, Sister, and may you somehow feel comfort in all the love and prayers coming your way.

These words from the Sufi poet, Rumi, have always comforted me when I have lost a loved one. I think we simply pass through a curtain from this life to another that we cannot see, like a ship on the horizon disappears from our view and yet appears on another shore.

how can there be an end
when the sun sets or
the moon goes down
it looks like the end
it seems like a sunset
but in reality it is a dawn

Very special prayers and thoughts for you and your family today, Sister.

May G*d hold your brother, and all of you, in the hollow of his hand.

May he soar with the angels and his pain be gone. Prayers for your family and hug his girls even tighter and make sure they know their daddy loves them and will be with them always. I'm so sorry for your loss.
