May the family find comfort and peace of mind when considering the sure hope Jesus Christ promises those in the memorial tombs. John 5:28,29 God’s purpose will also be realized soon. Revelation 21:3,4 L. Tarpley, King Capitol Heights, Maryland9D
My family and I knew Roscoe & he was truly loved for his loving personality. Just remember 1 Corinthian 15:26 where death is an enemy & will be brought to nothing. We also have the hope of a resurrection where we will see our deceased loved ones again found at John 5:28-29. Please read those scriptures to find comfort, hope during & after your time of grief.
