Very sorry to hear of the passing of Pat. Pat was always such a friendly person and even though we weren't blood related we always called her our cousin. I can see her now when we all lived in NY. She loved to read and suck her fingers! She will be missed. Cousin, Wanda Parker McIver

We deeply feel for what you and the family are going through. At times, there isn't much that can soothe the pain this grief brings, but you may find some comfort in the words of Psalms 9:9 which reads: 'Jehovah will become a secure refuge for the oppressed, A secure refuge in times of distress.' Yes, our Loving God can help if we allow him to (1John 5:14). He also has made the SURE promise of a resurrection right here on earth, when it is restored to a Paradise (Acts 24:15; Psalms 37:9-11,29). No, not just a dream, but for a certainty he will do it, for Isaiah 55:11 shows us that everything he says, he accomplishes without fail. You can find out more online at JW.ORG

I am so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. There is a very comforting scripture found at Isaiah 25:8. It says that soon Jehovah will swallow up death forever and that he will wipe away all of the tears. So we can look forward to a time when death will be done away with forever. I hope that this scripture can bring some comfort during this time.

Sending my sincerest condolences to my family. I am saddened to hear about the passing of Pat! I have so many fond memories of her and always think of my mom Fannie Bell whenever I saw her as the resemblance is amazing. May you rest in glorious peace and welcome to your mansion cousin. John 14:2 In my father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you: I go to prepare a place for you. RIH cousin Pat

Words are not enough right now to express how very honored, blessed and grateful I am to have known sweet Retta and to have had the pleasure of caring for her during her illness. Retta was an amazing person with a heart of gold, and I can honestly say that my life is a better place for having known her. Thank you, Carmen, for always welcoming me into your home with open arms from the very first day I met your sweet family. Some people you truly connect with right away, and that was most definitely the case with Retta and her family. She touched my heart from the moment I met her. I am so, so sorry for your loss, and I pray fervently that God wraps His strong arms around all of you as you grieve during this difficult time. Again, words just are not enough. I love you all dearly. Many prayers for peace in the days to come.

To My Family (Holding). May you find comfort and strength in knowing that God loves you and he cares for you, through talking to God in prayer, and from God's Word, the Bible.Psalm 36:7 says: 'How precious your loyal love is, O God! In the shadow of your wings, the sons of men take refuge'. Nahum 1:7; God 'is a stronghold in the day of distress, and is mindful of those seeking refuge in him'. Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you! (Psalm 34:18; Isaiah 41:10;13) Rest Well PAT!
