Dear Peter, You are in our thoughts and prayers as you grieve at this sad time, following Joy's death. I know that it's both a sadness, but also a release. Death ends an earthly life, but not a relationship, so we trust that you will have lots of ongoing nice memories from the good times. Shalom, Ian and Jill
