I would like to offer my deepest sympathies to you. I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that you are never alone. Turn to the Holy Scriptures for guidance and to help soothe your heart. God assures us that he is near to those broken at heart and crushed in spirit. He also gives us something to look forward to. Please read ( John 5:25-29: Isaiah 26:19: Psalm 37:29: Job 33:25; Revelation 21:3,4) May you find comfort , hope and peace in Gods word.

You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your dear loved one. Death is an enemy according to 1 Corinthians 15:26. That is why we mourn so when we lose a loved one to death . 1 Corinthians 15:54 says in part "Death is swallowed up forever." The God of the Bible promised we will live in a world free of death. Revelations 21:4 says " And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. What a wonderful future hope.

We were so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Stokes. As children, she was a delightful neighbor. She always had a smile and kind words for us. May God bless and keep her and the family as well. From Angela & Diane (Moss).

Sallie and I began our teaching career together at Minnie Howell Elementary in the fall of 1970. She had a strong personality, and I have fond memories of her. I am deeply saddened by her tragic death. God's blessings to you.
