Dear Betty and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of the death of Harry. Our hearts hurt for you all as you go through this time of grief. On of my greatest pleasures of my ministry was to share the Word and have Harry in the congregation. He sitting there faithfully with Betty pretending to be a sleep but if I said something just not right or he did not agree with he would say something to me before he walked out the door. I have comfort in knowing that Harry is with the Lord as on one of my hospital visits to see him in Erie. I distinctly recall him being very nervous/worried about the heart distress he was having and a fear of death. This was one of the few times he sat with me and shared is worry and concern and I was able to share God's truth with him and I was able to share the Gospel of Jesus with him and him sharing a prayer of salvation with me.
Please may you all have comfort in knowing the truth of the Apostle Paul absent from the body is present with the Lord. This is the truth for Harry he is before the throne of God worshiping Him with his musical abilities for all eternity.
Again our hearts and empathy are with you as you go through this lose, but if Harry had the opportunity to come back to you from heaven I assure you he would say no, for I am in glory before the Almighty and I will not come back to you but I shall wait here on this side of the river for you, you come to US.
Blessings to you dear Betty, and all the family
With our love and prayers,
Pastor Lyle and Faye
