Helen, We love you and are keeping you and Talmage in our prayers. Your mom must have been an amazing woman to live a life of 105 years.
To all of Maude’s family close and far away, we are keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers. We are so sorry for your loss.
Dear Turner family, I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one. It’s heartbreaking to read of such sad news, and I know you must be going through an extremely difficult time. May Jehovah, ‘the God of tender mercies and the God of all comfort,’ be with your family. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) He is aware of the pain you are feeling. Psalm 147:3 says, ‘He heals the brokenhearted; He binds up their wounds.’ These are just a few of many scriptures that has brought comfort to my family during times of bereavement. I hope that they bring comfort to your family as well.
