We can look forward to the day when there will be no more sickness and death. Revelation 21:4 says: "And he [God] will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." God cares for those with a broken hearted; Psalm 34:18 assures us that he is close to them. Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you! (Psalm 36:7; 1 Peter 5:7)
Very sad to see the passing of Jasper at such a young age. First met him a Rania's Restaurant but also have been seeing him at the Dutch Inn at Henry County Rotary Club meetings. He has always been a true gentleman with a very friendly smile and I have always considered him a friend. He will be missed my many and the family will be in our Prayers. J. Randy Joyce
