I will always remember Dan as a witty, fun loving husband, father, grandfather and friend. He will be missed at Harvest Baptist Church. One of the fondest memories I have of Dan is how kind he was to my daughter when she lost her dad almost 7 years ago. He would always hug her and put a smile on her face. He was so kind and thoughtful, Sometimes it’s the small things that people do for other that bring such fond memories to mind when they are gone. This morning at 616 the Lord took him by the hand and led him through the promise land. My Prayers are with the family and even though he is gone, he will never be forgotten. Stand near those Pearly gate Dan we’ll soon join you. Love to the family. Jo Anne.

I am sorry for your loss. Many have found this Bible verse to be comforting. Isaiah 258 states- He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces. The reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth. For Jehovah himself has spoken it. Very soon now, we will never experience losing our loved ones in death. Hope these words give you a new hope.
Jean, my prayers are with you and your family at this time of sadness.Dan was always so nice and friendly, I use to see him at the Walmart and we use to talk about our sons .He was a special person in my sons life. We were blessed to have known him. Margie Gardner
My sincere condolences to the Webb family for your loss. Even though I didn’t know Jessie personally, I know that he will be truly missed! I enjoy sharing the comforting promises that Jehovah God has in his word the Bible about the end of death, and the hope of being able to see our dead loved ones again-2 Cor. 13, 4! Regarding the end of death, the scripture at 1 Cor. 1526 helps us to appreciate that our great enemy death will be brought to nothing! How wonderful it will be to live life without the enemy death, being there to take it away from us and family and friends! Regarding the hope of being able to see our dead loved ones, Jesus demonstrated that we can be reunited with our dead loved ones by means of the resurrection. Most people are familiar with the account about Jesus close friend Lazurus who had been dead for four days. No doubt his sisters Martha and Mary dearly missed him. With the help of the power of his father, Jesus was able to resurrect Lazarus as readily as we might awaken someone from sleep! How excited his family must have been to see him-John 1111-44! We can have confidence in the resurrection just as Jesus did-John 528, 29! What a wonderful time that will be! Please feel free to email me if you have questions at [emailprotected] May your family be comforted!
