Dear Penny: we pray that your Dad Robert will inherit the beatitude and promises he received at his baptism. He was created to be in the presence of the Lord for eternity as we all are. "All things are possible to him who believes," said Jesus. May we live our lives so as to be worthy of His presence and glory. Our condolences to you who must now continue for a time without Robert, and we pray for your peace. Our hope is in the Lord, who made heaven and earth. We who desire to be together for eternity must love the Lord with all our heart. Sincerely, Joseph and Linzy Liuzza
