    My husband and I would like to express our sincere sympathy to the family and friends of your beloved Katherine. Although we hadn't had the opportunity to meet katherine personally we do understand the the pain of losing one so dear. We would like to share with you comfort we have experienced from Gods word found in John 5:28,29. I especially love the resurrection account of Jesus resurrecting Lazarus here on earth back to the arms of those he loved. ( John 11 ) How wonderful, knowing that we too will experience such joy in time. Remember also that our Heavenly Father, Jehovah ( Psalm 83:18) is always there for the broken hearted and those crushed in spirit. ( Psalm 34:18) Please, take a few moments, share your memories with those who surround you, for the memories shared are the ones most truly cherished, may they bring you comfort and peace as you begin to heal. Take care of yourselves and each other during this very difficult time.

    Dear Ed and Family. Sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I lost my mother in April of 2015 and still think of her everyday. I am sure you will find as I do little things that happen each day to remind you of her and the love you two shared. Please try to find comfort in those moments and cherish them each and everyday.
