To Daesia family and friends: I’m sorry to read of Daesia’s death, and extend my sincere condolence. Death of love one, especially so young is always painful. Fortunately in the bible at Revelation chap 21 verse 4-5 Almighty God assures us he will remove all sickness, death and pain. This he will do when his Kingdom rules this earth as it now rules heaven. So as you reflect on your memories with Daesia, remember our Creators promise. I’ll pray for your family.
