  1. My deepest sympathy to the Emmite family. I’m so sorry for your loss. Our heavenly Father knows the sorrow you’re going through as you mourn your loved one. At 1 Pet. 5:7 he gives the loving assurance that “he cares for you.” May the God of all comfort be with you at this difficult time. ( 2 Cor. 1:3,4 )
