  1. Lamm family She was such a special lady. I know she will be missed by all who knew her. May the knowledge of her faith in Christ give you comfort. Remember her sunset on earth on February 22, meant a sunrise in Heaven. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

  2. Brian, and Susie I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I know you will miss your mother greatly. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Lee Mears

  3. ) Due to the ramson sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we know that we have the hope of seeing our loved ones once again. The Bible gives us hope, over & over again. Jesus said I am the resurrection, & the life. He that exercises faith in me, though he dies, will come to life again. (John 1125) Jesus also said I am the vine & my Father is the cultivator. (John 151) The Bibles tells us that there will be no more tears, no pain, or sickness & death will be no more. (Rev. 213,4) What a wonderful time, we can look forward to, seeing our loved ones once again.

  4. Hi my name is Kayla. I am a local bible student and I am so sorry for your loss. There is a very comforting scripture at Isaiah 258 that says soon Jehovah will swallow up death forever and he will wipe away all of the tears. So we can all look forward to a time when death will be no more. I hope that this scripture can bring some comfort during there’s difficult times.

  5. Ms. Margerene Lamm certainly was blessed with the strength mentioned at Psalms 9010. Although living a full life, she will surely be missed by loved ones. Jehovah the God of all comfort (Romans 154) has commissioned his Son to awaken all those who have fallen asleep (John 5 28, 29). Please kindly accept my sympathy and may these scriptures bring you much needed comfort.
