Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Dear Family, Lorine was a beautiful quite woman. I met her while playing bridge. She was always kind and nice to me and my husband, Gene. Lorine had a dry wit and contagious laugh. She always spoke of her family lovingly and proud. She will be sorely missed. You have my sympathy, love and prayers. Liz Smallwood
I want to send my deepest sympathy to the family of Lourine Moore Evans. The bible tells us we can gain comfort from God, even during times of sorrow. We pray to our heavenly father for help to cope with the sorrow felt from the death of a loved one. By prayer and supplication, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. Philippians 46 May you find comfort by relying on our heavenly father and learning more about the blessings of God’s kingdom. Local ministry volunteer
