  1. Dear Family, Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of Margaret. May you be comforted beyond measure as you reflect on the solid promise of a resurrection for all who have died. (John 528-29) Almighty God cannot lie, his promises are our guarantee and will soon become our reality. (Titus 12) JW.ORG

  2. My deepest sympathy to the House family. I had the privilege of meeting Ms. House in 2013, when she accepted the When Someone You Loves Dies brochure. Thereafter, she extended to me and my partners hospitality on many occasions. We had delightful conversations regarding God’s promises. She was especially interested in Lesson 12 entitled How Can You Draw Close to God, in the Good News brochures, (also printed by Jehovah’s Witnesses). The Bible shows the primary ways to know God is through prayer and His Word (Matthew 69,10 and Matthew 44). It is my hope that each of you will use them both to get you through this time of sorrow. May Jehovah bless you.

  3. Mrs. House was a dear neighbor and friend to our parents for decades. She had amazing strength from the Lord to face so many health challenges over the years. Praise God that she is with Him now. Our sincere condolences to her family. Jackie and Carolyn Meade Vick

  4. To The Family Please except my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear loved one. Death is something that we regret. However, reading Gods word that Bible can bring you and the family great comfort. At 2 Cor 13,4 the Father tender mercies and the God of all comfort. verse 4 who comforts us in all our trials Continue to cherish those fond memories of your dear loved one while reading these scriptures. Deepest Sympathy,
