Was very sorry to hear of Gene’s passing. It has been many years since we last saw each other. GOD BLESS THE FAMILY Richard A. Huntsman, (Cousin)
To the family of David Behrman, I am very sorry for your loss and wanted to offer a word of comfort from the Bible. God promises the following at Rev 21:4, “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.” What a comforting thought that God has promised that soon death will be no more. I thought this would be comforting to know during your time of loss.
