To the Dale family,please accept our deepest sympathy over the loss of your dear loved one.We all can feel your pain because we have all loss someone in death.Though Leon is gone there is a promise that our Lord Jesus Christ made that will give us hope of seeing our dead loved ones again in the resurrection. Jesus said "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out"(John 5:28,29).Just imagine seeing Leon again living in paradise where there is no more sickness,pain,sorrow, and death (Isaiah 25:8;Revelation 21:3-5).
