To Harry,Jr, Keba and April. You had a wonderful father. As a daughter-in-law, he treated me just like I was his own daughter. He may be gone in the form in which we know him, but as long as you (we)remember and love him in our hearts, he'll never die. Keep your heads up and look toward the hills from which cometh your help, for God is not a God who makes mistakes.I pray he give you the strength to move on from day to day.

Harry ,Sr. We love you and will miss you dearly.

Your daughter-in-law

To Harry Lee Brown Jr. (my friend and Neighbor) and to other members of this family. Jesus told us in John that he's going ahead of us to prepare a place for us in Heaven. (In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am (John 14:2,3.) When we die, our Savior who cannot lie will come and take us by the hand and lead us across the river of Jordan into the Promised Land. There we will see our Lord face-to-face. We will see him in his full Glory. We shall stand and bow with other saints to praise and glorify his Holy name. We will understand that he is worthy of our honor and our songs of praise as we dance before him. Each of us should look forward to our personal rapture when our Savior plucks us from this earth. Every time a Christian dies on earth, Jesus comes and escorts them into Paradise. "Thank you Lord, for your unfailing Love, your Salvation, and for our future home in the Heavens above. Holy is the Lord. I pray that you be Blessed and Encouraged from this reading.

I never actually had the opportunity to meet Mr. Harry Brown Sr., but I am a close friend of Harry Brown Jr. and he spoke so highly of his father. Harry Jr., my deepest sympathies go out to you and your family at this time. Know that your father is now in a good place and in good hands with his Heavenly Father, and that he and your mother are now reunited. I will be praying for you and your family during your time of mourning. Please know that I will always be there for you and that I love you!:-)
