Buried My Son Today

Post by J R Rose »

What a tough time I have had this week. So Sad and not able to make sense of it. Greg Rose was 55 years old July 25th. He had a massive seizure and heart failure and passed in a short time. He loved me, His Mother, His wife and Children, we all were very close. It has been a very SAD day. J.R. Rose

My prayers go out to you Mr. Rose. I recently lost my youngest brother to a heart attack that could have been fixed with a stint if he could have gotten there in time. God bless.

Sorry J.R. for the loss. No parent should lose a child. He will be welcomed into the arms of God and the Angels.
Thank the Lord you will see him again.
