To the Woodburn Family
I am so sorry for your loss. It is difficult to cope with the death of our dear loved one, but we have our special memories to help us to move forward. God is always there to comfort us (2 Corinthians 1:3,4). We can also consider Acts 24:15 where we read about the hope of the resurrection of both the just and unjust. I pray this helps you to find peace.
Denise, Ricky & family:
My condolences on the passing of Carolyn. She was such a sweet woman that I had the pleasure of meeting when my father (Larry Combs) was the Household Goods Inpector 30+yrs ago. I know Jack met her @ the pearly gates w/open arms. She is now a Angel soaring the heavenly sky. May she rest in peace. God Bless.
