  3. Dear Lynne, Susie, Debbie, & Kelce
    There are NO WORDS that could express to you all my sympathy in the loss of your mom. However, the night she told me that she had accepted Jesus as her Savior allowed all who know HIM as their Savior the assurance that we will see her again. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and WE LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH.

  8. God our Father,
    Your power brings us to birth,
    Your providence guides our lives,
    and by Your command we return to dust.

    Lord, those who die still live in Your presence,
    their lives change but do not end.
    I pray in hope for my family,
    relatives and friends,
    and for all the dead known to You alone.

    In company with Christ,
    Who died and now lives,
    may they rejoice in Your kingdom,
    where all our tears are wiped away.
    Unite us together again in one family,
    to sing Your praise forever and ever.

    Amen.

  9. MAY MEMORIES LIGHT YOUR DARKNESS

    The memories
    of those we’ve lost
    are beacons
    to guide our way
    out of the
    darkness of grief
    and into
    the light of day…

    May memories
    comfort you,
    friends sustain you,
    and hope
    guide your way
    to a brighter
    tomorrow.

    WITH DEEPEST SYMPATHY
