Obituary 

Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father 
of mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our 
tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any 
trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. 
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
