I love and going to miss my uncle butch but he is really my cousin heloved me a lot I can remember since I was a kid my nickname was red he always called me that.we all going toi miss him a lot but god has him in arms up in heaven now.
Although I did not know Charles personally I wanted to offer my deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences. I write to share a beautiful scriptural promise of comfort and hope. Jeremiah 29:11 “For I well know the thoughts that I am thinking toward you,’ declares Jehovah, ‘thoughts of peace, and not of calamity, to give you a future and a hope.” This hope is the promise to see our dear loved ones who have past away again. When God brings them back to life through a resurrection to reunite them with us forever again. John 5:28,29 “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” What a beautiful promise and how comforting to know that we can have the heartwarming hope that someday, in God’s new world, we will be reunited with loved ones who have fallen asleep in death.
Until that day soon may fond memories of your dear loved one bring you comfort during this hard time in your life. Look back on all the good memories you were able to have and smile at the fact that you were able to share these. My heart and sympathies go out to you and your family.
Condolences to the family. I’ve known Butch since we’re teenagers. Butch was a good friend to me, I’ll miss his smiling face at the flea market. Rest In Peace ole friend. May God send comfort to the family.
So sorry for your loss of your loved one and our classmate and friend. Keeping you all in our prayers. Lowell (Moe) Bias & Regeana Bias
