Our prayers are with your wife and children. She was doing ok today, I know you are fine walking the streets of heaven. As a brother, rest assured your family will be fine and one day we shall meet again and rejoice in the blessings we shared.
Isaiah: 43:2
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.
From the Indian me.
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. We live our life so that when we die, the world cries and we rejoice. As one warrior to another, I bid you a farewell until we walk the streets again.
