Three years ago my Uncle Kent passed away from a brain aneurysm as well as multiple brain tumors through out his life. Last June my grandpa Neilson passed away from difficulties of old age. Just this passed July my little niece Preslee passed away from a tragic accident. Each of these passings has been difficult for me to overcome. Yesterday my Uncle Chad passed away from a difficult battle with cancer. He will be truly missed. Chad was such a fun uncle. We could always count on him to make us laugh. He was always a joy to be around. My heart aches for his loved ones, especially his wife Susan and only child Brandon. They will continue to be in our prayers.
One thing I've learned through it all is that it's never easy to lose a loved one, but with the Lord's help he makes it possible for us to heal. I'm so grateful to have the gospel in my life. It brings comfort and peace to my heart knowing that I'll be able to see my Uncle Chad, Preslee, Grandpa, and Uncle Kent again. They will always be loved and remembered. I'll never forget them and the impact they each had on my life.
As the hymn says, "God be with us til we meet again..."

That is good you got to see him right before he passed away. It's always hard to lose someone you love them so I'm so sorry for your family.
