God of all Love, let your Spirit bring strength and comfort for Bart, his children and grandchildren, and all who mourn with him this day. Surround them with your love that is beyond our understanding. Bless all who are leading the service. We thank you, Lord, for the life of Claudia who blessed so many people, especially children, in her work and homelife. Thank you for the gift of your presence in this time of mourning. Bless them, keep them, and shine the light of your love on all who gather today. I ask this in the name of your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. Amen.
