" I'm so sorry for your loss. Please accept my deepest sympathy. May you find comfort from your memories, as well as God's word the bible. Why do people we love die? Romans 5:12 says: "That is why, just as through one man (Adam) sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." How loving of God to promise what is found at Revelation 21:4 which 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." See also www.jw.org.

"Betty was my mother in law, who I met in 1977. She was a quiet, gentle soul who had a wonderful giggle when she laughed, which she did often at the antics of her family. Along with her husband Bob, they inspired me to see how wonderful a loving,caring marriage can take you through the ups and downs of life. She and Bob raised 5 wonderful, loving children who I am lucky to have as my family."
