Because you cared, you came to share beautiful flowers and words of prayers.  Because you cared enough to do, words of comfort and cards came, too.  Because you cared, we're grateful in deed.  You've been a comfort and a friend in need.  Because you cared, we are able to bear the grief and sorrow--there's less despair.  Because you cared, we are praying, too, for God's richest blessing for each of you.  Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much--whatever the part!
