“I had no idea what funeral home to choose when my father passed away. Unfortunately, I did not choose Tharp originally. Your competitor did not console me for my loss or ask my name upon our initial meeting. I knew my father was in the wrong place. The next morning I paid a visit to Tharp where I was met warmly and honestly and treated like a person who not only lost my father but my best friend. As a member of the military, I salute you for a job well done.”

Hello, my name is Ashley. I did not know Leland personally, but I wanted to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. At times like this, I have found Jesus Christs' words at John 5:28,29 to be very comforting where he promised that "the hour is coming when all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out...to a resurrection of life." We also have the comforting assurance at Revelation 21:3,4 that soon "God will wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning, nor outcry, nor pain be anymore." I just wanted to share something encouraging that has helped my family in times of loss. You will be in my prayers.

I know that he loved you and was so proud of you. God Bless You......

Love,
