"This is not an easy timer for those who knew and loved Mr. Miller. May God's Word bring you peace and comfort during this difficult time. Revelation 21:4 "he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more neither will mourning nor out cry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." My deepest condolences. RR"
