Weeping may endure the night but joy comes in the morning It's so hard to see the light when you're binded by the darkness Now is not the time to roam in the dark and end up losing your way Stay together as family and you'll find your way to the light at the end of the tunnel The darkest hour is just before of the break of day Know that family and friends encircle you and will be there through this dark trial GOD be with you until you meet again Marvin L Henderson Kent OH
