I am very deeply saddened about the passing of my wonderful aunt Barbara. However, I maintain the hope that I will see her again, hopefully real soon. She was the sweetest person I've every known and one of my favorite aunts. I am especially grateful for all the wonderful memories I have of her and our times together. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.
Til we see each other again, Kim
Mary and Family, My deepest sympathies to you and your family. I was very sad to hear about your mom. Many good memories.
My husband and I would like to express our sincere sympathy to the family and friends of your beloved Barbara. Although we hadn't had the opportunity to meet Barbara 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, that we too will experience that same joy in time. Remember also that our Heavenly Father Jehovah ( Psalm 83:18 ) is 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.
