We love you all and are thinking of you
So sorry to hear of Mr Kolodziejski’s death. I wanted to try to share something to bring the family some comfort. A scripture that has helped me is Revelation 21:4 where God promises to “wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more ” I hope it brings you comfort as it has me.
