My dearly loved uncle is home in the arms of Jesus. Tonight he heard Our Savior say to him, "Well done my good and faithful servant!"

We rejoice that he has no more pain, no more suffering, and no longer has to fight cancer. Our hearts are full of sorrow because he will be dearly missed here on earth. He and my aunt were an inseparable pair. She and my mom were able to be by his side tonight holding his hands as he took his final breath here on earth.

I know that one day we will meet again, because of the security that I have of salvation in Jesus Christ. My uncle believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and was saved. I too believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, because of this I can say we will see each other again in all of heaven's majesty.

It is so good to be assured of salvation and so very good when you know a loved one had that assurance. God Bless You this day.

Yeah...tis an AMAZING thought to know that he's not only NOT in pain, but he's dancing and worshipping and shouting and praising and laughing and rejoicing and.... in the untainted presence of our King.

I look forward to meeting him one day. :)

And may God's tangible presence hover over your aunt!
