    One memory of Kristoffer M. Solesbee

    Dear Family and Friends,

    I didn't know your loved one, but I'm sure he was a nice person. In the Bible at Revelation 21:4 Almight God says "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning, nor outcry nor pain be any more. The former things have passed away. This gives us a wonderful hope for the future. May peace and hope be with you at this difficult time.
