Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
A sweet angel.. We will certainly miss her. She brought joy. Jerry and Katie Grimes
Dear Family, Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of Marguerite. 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
Although I didn’t know Mrs. Inscoe, I know the loss associated with losing a loved one in death. My 89-year old mother died a few months ago too.. God’s promise of an earthly resurrection has been very comforting. (Psalm 3729; Acts 2415) Hopefully, that will provide a measure of comfort for you too. Until that time, continue to reflect on your cherished memories of Mrs. Inscoe.
My heartfelt coldonlences to the entire family.

R.I.P. dear lady. You were a wonderful cousin and neighbor. You will be missed. Love ya Linda, Larry and Stephanie and the rest of our cousins. She definitely fought the good fight. But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. From now on the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day-and not only to me, but to all who crave His appearing.
Another angel has earned her wings! She’s now resting in the arms of Jesus! She will be sorely missed! She’s the end of a lineage that’s rarely found in this world anymore!! May God’s peace bring comfort to you Linda, Larry, Stephanie & extended family while going through this transition! Love you All!
She was a sweet and kind soul. My father thought the world of her. She will always have a special place in my heart.
My sincere condolences to all of the family. Such a sweet, classy lady. Another angel in heaven. God bless.
