Dear Sue, Doris, and Virgil,
I was very saddened to learn of your family's loss. Steve was certainly a credit to his family and his community. I understand full well the sense of loss that you must be feeling, having lost my brother, David, several years ago. Please know that my thoughts are with you during this time of transition.
Fond regards,
Donald Snyder,
Silver Spring, MD
Most merciful God, whose wisdom is beyond our understanding: Deal graciously with Sue, Doris. and Virgil in their grief. Surround them with your love, that they may not be
overwhelmed by their loss, but have confidence in your goodness, and strength to meet the days to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
