      Life is about balance and harmony, so when there are highs, there will be lows. When there is war, there will be peace. When there is hate, there is love. Though we all understand that death is a natural part of life, it still brings us grief when we lose loved ones. As we prepare for a new year, we want to take some to reflect and be thankful for those who we lost in 2021. Let’s celebrate their legacy and continue to keep their families in our prayers.
