GRADY, SORRY TO HEAR OF THE PASSING OF MARVIN. MAY THE’ GOOD LORD BLESS EACH ONE OF YOU AT THIS TIME. ‘JOE AND MARY T. EZZELL
I am very sorry for your loss . Losing a loved one in death is such a difficult thing to experience . Please be comforted by the promises in the Bible . Jesus tells us at John 5 28 , 29 that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out . What a loving provision put in place by the God of all comfort so we can have the assured hope of seeing our dead loved ones live again one day . Meanwhile as I pray for that day to come I ask Jehovah God to bless your family and give each of you the strength to endure this most trying time .
