My sympathy to the Eddington family. I enjoyed working with Dave when I was principal at All Saints Catholic School. His advise and support was always appreciated.

I am so sorry for the Eddington Family and your loss, I lost my Mom last year. I have found death to leave me with a feeling of helplessness. May I leave you this word of encouragement that has helped me. The Bible says at 1 Corinthians 15: 26 that God hates death, and shows it to be an enemy. He has "a yearning" to conquer that enemy, to undo death by means of the resurrection. He longs to bring back those who are in his memory and to see them live on earth again. -Job 14:14,15. My sincere condolences
