    My sincere condolences to the family. May you find comfort in your loving memories and in knowing that God “is near to those that are broken at heart.” (Ps.34:18) While grief at the loss of Harvey is great, joy at welcoming him back in the resurrection will be greater. (Mark 5:42; John 5:28,29)
