Here is my prayer in memory of my beloved Uncle Charlie who filled a void in my life by always being there for me, not just an Uncle, but as my surrogate father. I will miss him every day of my life. Here is my prayer in memory of this special man who was truly one of a kind:
"Lord, the death of my loved one has hit me hard. Ours was a relationship built slowly, over years of shared experiences. A friendship of that depth is beyond value, and I find memories of my loved one in many places. This death has made me aware of my own mortality and has challenged my faith. Yet, I hope in You, Your power over death and the rewards of Your promised kingdom are the only consolations I can find at this difficult time. Keep my faith and the faith of all who cared for my beloved Uncle strong. Let us always be a source of support and comfort to one another. May he always be at Your side to share in the light and glory of Your eternal life, happiness and peace. Amen".
