To those who are mourning, and struggling to make sense of the loss of Jeff:
This was indeed a very sad, sudden, and tragic loss. I myself feel a personal burden over never having conversations with Jeff over things that actually matter (most notably, the salvation that comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.) I hope and pray Jeff knew his Creator. To the many friends, family, and co-workers left behind, I pray that our gracious God would provide peace and comfort during such painful difficulty, but I also pray that this loss would indeed bring healing, and bear much good fruit for the McRobert family, his friends and colleagues at Forman Electric, and to the communities of Embro, Granton, and St. Mary’s. Peace be with you all. Amen.
In His Service,
