Dear Brosious Family,
Words cannot express the grief the loss of Diane brings to many, on and off the trails, I am sure. I knew her only briefly, some years ago, on the trail really (CTRs); I remember her many kindnesses, deftly handed out to humans and animals alike, and how her name "Brosious" sounded like "gracious", and how well that similarity suited her, and hers.
I pray the Lord's words bring you some comfort during this difficult time:
"Wherefore comfort one another with these words...And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away...The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever....Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe...For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words..." 1611 KJV
