I am sorry that your dear loved one fell asleep in death. My condolences to you all. Please take comfort in knowing that our heavenly father will soon remove all pain, sorrow, and death forever! May this promise as recorded in Revelation 21:3,4 be of comfort as you gain the strength and inner peace to cope with the days ahead. When you have a quiet moment also read Philippians 4:13 for the assurance that Jehovah will help you through this difficult time.

Dear Karen, Sue and Families:
Please accept my deepest sympathy and regards for the passing of your mother. I am so very sorry that I was unable to attend the scheduled services and have not reached out to you sooner. Please know that you were, and continue to be, in my thoughts. My mom and I carry you in our hearts. I truly consider it a beautiful gift that I was able to reconnect with Helen at Brookside after a number of years had passed and also have had the opportunity to get to know you, her family, a little better. Your mom was a very special person and carried such beautiful energy. I know you must miss her greatly…take care.
With love,
Rosann and Lorraine Lewis
