    When we loose a loved one here on earth, we gain an angel in heaven that watches over us. May you take comfort in knowing that you have an angel to watch over you now. We extend our most sincere condolences to your family.

    Although your work on earth is done
    Your life in heaven has just begun.

    Your struggles here were hard and long
    But they’re over now, you’re finally home.

    Love your Brother
