I Have known Brenda since I met them way back when Little Phillip was 2 yrs. old, I kept all the kids and helped her take care of her mother so our lives were entertwined for awhile between our families . She was a great person! I am just in shock , it is so sudden and to soon ! I feel for all you kids and grand kids and Phillip!
May God wrap his arms around you all and comfort each of you . I am hurting for your loss so much! I had lost touch awhile and kept her in my memory going to contact her but didn’t get the chance so it goes to show we better act quicker to show our kindness to others while we have the chance , we do not know what tomorrow holds for any of us! God Bless everyone of you I Pray! Wanda Worley
I am truly sorry for your loss. Our prayers go out to all of you.
So sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you.
I want to offer my condolences and to assure you of a wonderful hope that the bible offers. The bible makes the promise of a resurrection at Acts 24:15. It also tells us that death will be no more. (Revelation 21:4) You can believe this because God is the creator of life and he is certainly capable of restoring it. He has resurrected people in the past and is eager to do it again. (Job 14:14,15) He will resurrect them here to the earth and you can see them again without having to die. My hope is that you take comfort in these promises and that it can in some way ease your pain at this time
My prayers and thoughts go out to the Banks family in this time of loss. Although I did not know Brenda on a personal level as many of her friends I have had the pleasure of working with her these last 5 years. I will miss seeing her smile in the morning and those witty little quips she would come up with within regards to something that would happen at work. You will be missed Brenda.
Although I did not know Brenda personally, I was deeply saddened to read of her death. We don’t always have to know a person or family to have empathy for them at such distressing time. Our loving Heavenly Father too has empathy for all of us who experience the sting of death. At Isaiah 63:9 it says of God: ‘During all of their distress it was distressing to him…’ And mercifully our loving God assures us that death will be eliminated, and soon reunited with our loved ones, in the resurrection.- Revelation 21:4; Acts 24:15
Sincerely,
Please accept our condolences on the loss of Brenda Jo. It’s always so sad when a loved one falls asleep in death. May God the God of comfort be with your family during this difficult time. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4
I am heart broken at the loss of my sweet coworker, she was never to busy to stop a moment and talk or give you advice or just listen about your aches and pains, but she never complained. I thought your mom was great and I am keeping you in my prayers. God bless and comfort your hearts. I will miss Brenda, her memory will live on in our hearts.
