    My condolences to the Burrows family. I pray God comforts the family during this time of bereavement. May the many cherished and loving memories of Henry comfort his family and friends. May you all have peace of mind during this time. A comforting thought to keep in mind is at Revelation 21:4 “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain will be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
