Glenda, Jerry and all, so very sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss. The death of a loved one is a difficult thing to bear. I have found comfort in the promises found in the scriptures that someday soon we would see our loved ones again. John 11:25. Not only can we look forward to seeing our loved ones again, but soon there will be no more pain, suffering and even death itself will be done away with. Revelation 21:4. Until then, may the peace of God be with you and give you comfort and hope. Philippians 4:7 Warm Regards, Melissa JW.org https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/bible-teach/hope-resurrection-of-dead-loved-ones/?insight
So sorry for your loss. Prayers for your families.
I remember your mom and dad when they were the youth leaders at the Free Methodist Church when you all were growing up. They were so devoted and loved all of us teens with an unending and unconditional love. You have been given a wonderful legacy left by your parents. I am praying for all of you. Iona [Beaty] Sewell
