‘I love you so much, brother. Rest peacefully! I’ll see you on the other side.’
‘You had the biggest heart Austin, we will all miss you and we will always cherish our fun memories of holidays and many other times we spent. We will all watch out for your mom and kitty as we know they are your most important!’
‘I’m so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you. We love you!’
‘Rest easy my little grandson, Austin. These words from Holy Scripture can soothe those who don’t understand the love of God and the human nature of Man:
Psalms 103:12 “As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our transgressions from us.”
James 5:15 “… If he has committed any sins, forgiveness will be his.”
2 Maccabees 12:46 “Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be freed from this sin.”
Romans 5:8 “It is precisely in this that God proves his love for us: that while we were sinners, Christ died for us.
My prayers, and Meemo’s are still being offered up to you, Austin. Last Sunday, I put your name in the Book of the Sick, just like I did Nanny’s and Granddaddy’s when they left us. Now, not only us, but all of God’s Holy Ones’, living or dead, offer prayers for you. God hears ALL Prayers! Rest easy in God’s love, little man. We will all be reunited in perfect peace and harmony one day. God bless you, Austin.
Love, GrandPa’
‘my thoughts and prayers are with Laura and the rest of Austins family-I have know Austin for several years thru my daughter Katie. He was always very sweet to me, polite and had a hug and kiss for me everytime I saw him. I am so sorry he is gone and pray he is at peace, I will remember him and the fun times we had when he was at our house. Rest in Peace Sweet Angel.’
‘Psalms 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
You are with God now. Rest in peace, Austin. We will always love you and remember you as the genuine good hearted person you were with your big smile.’
‘I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one. May his smile and your memories be a comfort to you. May the God of all comfort wrap his arms around you all and give you the strength and peace to endure this distressing time. Peace and love be with you. (2 Corn. 1:3,4 and John 5:28,29 jw.org)’
