With Sympathy & Caring: May this comforting thought from God’s Word give you real hope and strength to keep going. Revelation 21:4 promises "And God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” This future blessing that awaits us will happen right here on earth.

Monica I'm so sorry for your loss. Hubby was such a kind guy to me. Each time I'd come through the drive-thru at City Hall I'd ask....Give my condolences to your parents..Ricky and Mary Nell. May you find strength in fond memories of how hubby lived his life and how much he meant to me.

To the family, look the hills from whence cometh your help, knowing that your help comes the LORD which made the heavens and earth. HE will not put no more on you than you can bear. I met "YoungBlood" as the fellows called him, 5 years ago and he always had a smile when you greeted him, he was very respectful and he will be truly missed. May GOD bless you the family.
