Lois, we have both fought long battles against Cancer, and had to release our dear husbands because of them. Be comforted that we will once again see them, and they will have no pain, just beautiful smiles and open arms as they greet us. God be with you and your family as you face your first Christmas with an empty chair. (Take advantage of the breavement services Care Partners offer. They have been a Godsend to me.)
Dear Lois…
Susan and I are extremely sorry to hear of Jim’s passing.. We have very fond memories of you both attending church here.. May God provide you and the family grace and strength. Jim is in heaven now with his Lord…
Dear Lois,
I have been praying for Jim and you, but must admit I was neglectful in sending you a card. I am rejoicing with you that Jim is
in the everlasting arms of our Lord
and Savior. But, I am, also, sorrowing with you because the parting for now is difficult.
If you don’t remember who I am, I
went to Capital Bible Church with
you and Jim. I can still remember
your 50th Wedding Anniversary.
In His Unchanging Love,
Gloria Gaffney
Lois, I am glad that, though belatedly, I got to know Jim and you. Jim impressed me with his lively faith, and you, with great love and devotion for your husband.
May you both have peace.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Please know you have our deepest sympathy. Jim is at peace, but it’s so hard to lose a loved one. We love you!
Lois, I was so sad to hear of Jim’s death. Althought I never got to meet him I feel like I knew him through you. Of all the special things I will remember is the BBQ. It meant so much to Larry and I to have done that with such a little thing like that. Although the holidays will be tough, you can live with the assurance you will one day get to join him, and all will be healed. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.
Love you,
Debi Brown
Mrs. Cunninghame,
I knew Angelique and Dan when they were in Muncie. I met you several times. I have lost touch with Angelique, but have messaged with Josh on fb. I am so sorry to hear about your husband. I just heard tonight. You are all in my prayers. Please
let Angelique know I am praying for her.
The love you share as a family has always
been a blessing to me. I know your faith and God’s comfort will sustain you.
