To The Grieving Family of Mr. Tony Carmichael..... A message of Solace at The Time of Your Lost of a Loved One………… Many Wonder: What Happens to Us When We Die? WHY THE QUESTION ARISES: Most of the world’s religions teach that something inside a person continues living after death. Some hold that the dead can harm the living or that God punishes the wicked by condemning them to eternal torment in a fiery hell. WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES: At death, humans cease to exist. “The dead know nothing at all,” states Ecclesiastes 9:5. Since the dead cannot know, feel, or experience anything, they cannot harm—or help—the living.—Psalm 146:3, 4. It is my sincere hope that these words/this knowledge helps to sustain you, your family during your Bereavement… See also Genesis 3:19 and Ecclesiastes 9:6, 10.

My heart and prays goes out to the Carmichael family and friends. I met Tony over 20 years ago and we became friends and man we did some balling on the basketball court. Tony was very competitive even to the point he wanted to learn how to play softball a sport he hadn't never played and became very good at it to the point he was named our starting pitcher and he truly LOVED his family. Tony you're truly be missed the memories will always be there just like the smile you walked around with everyday. Charles Reed"CJ"
