Offering expressions of sympathy to the Madrid family and friends. The loss of a loved one breaks into our lives like an irresistible force, often when we are completely unprepared and it robs us of those we hold dear. When under extreme pressure from your grief may you cry out to God: "My spirit is failing; My heart is numb within me." Psalm 143:4
