My sincere condolences to the family of Arthur S. Walgren – I am sorry to hear of your loss. May you find comfort in many beautiful memories of Mr. Walgren at this difficult time. The Bible gives us hope that soon the Creator will end all pain, suffering, and death. (Revelation 21:4) The promise of Paradise, the perfect conditions God originally intended for mankind in the Garden of Eden will include God’s “will being done as in Heaven also up on Earth” (Matt 6:9, 10). Please continue to be comforted by the many promises of a hopeful future in the Bible. (John 17:3).
On behalf of the Forest Lake American Legion Post 225, we give thanks for Arthur’s military service to our nation.
