John 14: 1-6
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there you may be also. And whither I go, you know and the way you know.
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we know not where you go; how can we know the way?
Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but by me.”
We want to thank all our friends and family for the prayers and care during Jack’s illness. Also to Homestead Hospice for the exceptional care he received from caring people.
