Dear Reuben, Please accept my most sincere sense of sorrow in the death of your wife, Joanne - and of Jackie's beloved sister. Your amazing achievement of living happily together for 50 years will leave you with a fund of memories that will help to dispel some of your desperate sadness - But our Heavenly Father has a wonderful way of taking us in hand and helping to lift the load that seems unbearable. I trust and pray that this will be the case with you. I am reminded of a little verse that has been helpful to me: Step out boldly on the road and combat gloom with all your might. Help others with a heavier load. For those in darkness - be their light. Sincerely, Merle belford
