Trusting that you will see the bright side of the dark cloud——I am with deep sympathy your friend
How can I attempt to comfort you in the bitter affliction which has befallen you
I regret to hear of your continued indisposition and hope that before long you may return to your wonted good health
I can only send my sympathy and best wishes for your speedy and complete recovery
May the Father of Mercies give you the rich consolation of His grace and preserve and strengthen you for your family
May you be sustained in this most bitter trial
The grateful sense of your kindness will never be erased from my mind
If my services can in any way assist you do not hesitate to ask for them
I am sincerely sorry to hear of your loss
He carried the riches of God within himself
We are greatly afflicted by the melancholy intelligence which reached us that——
I knew the sterling integrity of his character
May God breathe into your heart peace and cheerful resignation
My mind is filled with very grateful memories
I fall back upon a very delightful verse of Scripture: “He is able to subdue all things unto himself”
My heart is filled with the deepest gratitude as I think of ————
We send our earnest wishes for your speedy recovery
You seem to have your full share of human vicissitudes
He had such a fund of courage and good cheer
A letter replete with tenderness and affection
All things work together for good to them that love God
Many daughters have done virtuously but thou excellest them all
It is better to go to the house of mourning than to the house of feasting
God will take us into their goodly company some glad day
Glimpses of the reality which we instinctively feel will sometime be ours
The unmeasured things of hope which God has prepared for men
Our lives we must humbly commit to the guiding hand whose blessing we adore
There are many avenues by which God would come in and richly bless us
He had the secret of keeping the sacred fires aglow
He knew the deep principles of experimental religion
One who ministered so carefully and tenderly
And this thought will be our comfort that——
All the gentle virtues came into full blossom
Looking forward with a Christian’s bright anticipation of a glad reunion
Persisted in keeping mind and spirit on the sunny side of life however hard the trials and difficulties
