Dear Anthony, Kathleen and Dalupan family, We are so very sorry for your loss... our hearts hurt for you and with you. We cry healing tears of grief with you. Our deepest condolences to you and your family. Losing a father is a very painful experience. You can shed tears because they are gone, or you can smile because they lived. You can close your eyes and pray they will come back, or you can open your eyes and see all that they left for you. Your heart can be empty because you can't see them, or you can be full of the love you shared. You could turn your back on tomorrow in live yesterday, or you could be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember only that they are gone, or you can cherish their memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind and feel empty, or you can do what your dad would want. Smile, open your heart, love... And go on. We will remember Ben in our prayers and let his memory be eternal. Let him rest in God in the Kingdom of Heaven with all the saints that have gone before him, where there is no suffering, no sighing, nor sorrow... but life is eternal. May the good Lord wrap His arms around you to comfort and strengthen you in the days ahead. Love Fred & Renee Kushnir
