Thinking of you and your family in the loss of your mother.
Love and sympathy from both of us,
Gay&Warren; Deaver
I am so sorry for your loss. To lose someone we love in death is the most devastating event that can take place in our lives. The pain and anguish we feel never truly goes away. Our loving God Jehovah is aware of what we are feeling and is here to offer us comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4). God holds out wonderful promises concerning our departed loved ones at Revelation 21:3, 4; And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. I hope these scriptures will give you strength to endure the difficult days ahead. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
DANNY & FAMILY,
I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.PRAYERS COMING YOUR WAY.
LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH!!!
Massey Family- so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers.
Larry, Becky, Danny and Sheri and children,
My daughter Amy called this afternoon with the news of your Mom’s death and that her Dad was going over to the funeral.
I will have you in my prayers and wish I could be there with the family, as I once was. We had many good years as a family and growing up with each other in high school! She and your Dad were always so nice to me.
She lived a long life and I know that is a peace for you all in having her with you this long.
May God Bless you all.
Love and prayers,
Beth Dotson(Jackson) Young
