I am so sorry to hear of the death of Me. Harner. The loss of a loved one is always with much sorrow. May we have confidence and faith in the Bible\’s future promise of a time when all things like pain, sickness and death are a thing of the past (Revelation 21:3, 4). My thoughts and condolences are with the family in this time of sadness.
