My deepest condolences to both Derrick and Kevin. May your hearts be filled with loving memories of your Father. Love you both, Arnetta

I would like to express my sincere condolences in the loss of your dear loved one. Death is a hurtful thing ,but the bible gives us hope of seeing them again in the promised resurrection to come according to scriptures such as [Acts chapter 24: 15] and [John 5:28-29]. We find further hope in scriptures like [Isaiah 25:8] and [Revelations 21:3-5] which says in part that Jehovah God will wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more, because God will swallow up death forever. I hope these scriptures will be of some comfort. With Deep Sympathy.

To the McArthur Family, To lose a loved one in death is overwhelming. How grateful we can be to have the promises of God to give us comfort and hope. The Bible says, those in the memorial tombs will...….come out.' (John 5:28,29) This promise future includes perfect health and everlasting life. (Psalm 37:29) May these verses bring hope and comfort during this most difficult time.

Prayers for you and your family. 'earth has no sorrow that heaven can't heal' We love you and pray for peace and comfort for you and your family

- Latoya and Jacques Bridges

My thoughts are with you and the family and how death robs us of our loved ones. Jehovah God has promised to remove death, sickness, and pain from the earth and reunite us with our loved one on a cleansed earth in the future. (Revelation 21:4; John 5:28,29; John 17:3; Psalms 83:18)  In the meantime you can be sure that God understands how you feel now! The Bible assures us: 'He is healing the brokenhearted ones, And is binding up there painful spots.' Psalms 147:3 jw.org Website for more encouragement.

Derrick and Kevin and family: I was sorry to learn of your farher’s passing. I extend my deepest condolences to you and your family. I have many fond memories of your father from the early days of First Baptist Church/Christian Faith Center. He and your mother were very hospitable to me when I first started attending the church. May the peace of God sustain you during this time.

My sincerest condolences to the family. Words can’t wipe away your tears. Hugs won’t ease the pain. But hold on to the memories, Forever they will remain.

- Karyn Midgette

I’m sorry for your loss, pain and suffering. Whenever we lose a loved one in death we feel a sting and a void in our hearts, as if someone ripped part of our heart out. The pain seems like it will never go away. It will with time, or it will at least ease up. The Bible reassures us of that in 1 Corinthians 15:54,55 - “Death is swallowed up forever. Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?” God promises us there will be no more death. (Rev. 22:3,4). Turn to him in prayer.

- Karen

We're sorry to hear about your recent loss. Accept our sincere condolences. May you find strength from the words of Philippians 4:13 which says: 'For all things I have the strength through the one who gives me power.' What a loving God who cares about each one of us. He didn't intend for us to grow old and die. He thus has made the SURE promise of a resurrection right here on earth when it is restored to a beautiful paradise (Psalms 37:9-11, 29; Acts 24:15; Isaiah 55;11). Can you see yourself welcoming back to life your loved ones? What a joy it will bring all of us. You can go online to JW.ORG and find out more about this resurrection.
