Chicago, IL Thursday, October 2, 2014 My dearest friends, Annie and Sam, To you and your family we send our heartfelt condolences. No one can no the grief in your hearts. We pray God will comfort all of you during this time and in the days ahead. Mrs. Franklin has made her transition and the bible assures us, “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” Eccl. 12:7 Your faith will sustain you and in time, God will wipe away all tears and return your joy. Be comforted in knowing, "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."-Psalm 30:5 Peace and Love to all of you. May God keep you in His perfect peace.Barbara Griffin-Miller
