Val: I can't believe that Van has passed away. I am heartbroken. He was a great friend and one of the few people I trusted to send people to with computer problems. I and the rest of his clients will sorely miss him. Please let me know if there is anything i can do.

Valerie,

Continue to look to the Lord for your strength and remember everything that happens to us-whether pleasure or pain developes christlike character-that is why we can take joy in our trials and tribulations.May God continue to bless you.

VaL,

Many of us struggle with the loneliness that comes with death, but even in death's dark hours there is hope. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead - put to rest the notion or mindset of death as the end. We can rejoice in the fact that through Jesus Christ, never again will death have the last word.We are praying for your continued strength.
