I am so sorry for your loss. I know this is a very difficult time for the family. Something that has always given me comfort is a scripture at Revelation 21:4, it says, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” I sincerely hope this brings you some comfort.

The Dearing family have always been very good to me, sharing a lot of family, faith, and love. I miss you all a bunch! When Mr. Dearing prayed for me and talked to me about God I always felt some peace. I believe he truly followed his love of God, his family, and all their friends here and now he's home.
