Mrs. Patterson & Curtis,
We are so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. We were very thankful to have spent an afternoon with Mr. & Mrs. Patterson a few years ago. Please accept our condolences and we shall keep you in our prayers.

What a dedicated Christian, loyal husband, and father. I always admired this fine man, especially for his steadfast stand for his principles, and his love of Jesus Christ, our Lord. I know he is thrilled to be with his dad, mom, Terry, and Phyllis. Gods comfort to all in this time of bereavement. Jim

So sorry for your loss. I know this is a very difficult time for the family. Something that has always given me comfort is a scripture at Revelation 21:4, it says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” I sincerely hope this brings you some comfort.

I never knew Mr. Patterson, but I wanted to say I’m sorry for your loss. I know death is hard to deal with, but it’s nice to take comfort in the promise to see our loved ones again. In my experience there have been a few scriptures that bring me the most comfort and I hope these can help you aswell.
Psalm 37:10,11
Isaiah 25:8
John 5:28
John 11:25
Acts 24:15
Revelation 21:4

Dear Ms Barbara and Curtis “Eddie”, I am so sorry for your sorrow. I know your heart aches and the emptiness you must feel. I’m sorry for the suffering you all have been through. The Lord said it was enough and called your husband/dad home. I’m sure words can’t express the peace he knows now. I’m sure Terry must have greeted him there. One day it will be a GRAND reunion for those that love the Lord. May the Lord bless and comfort you now and in the days to come. In Christ’s love, Sheryl
