Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
My sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Marjorie Perkins. May you find comfort in the kindness’ one another and in knowing God cares for you (1 Peter 57).
My condolences to the family. Take comfort from Gods word the Bible. This is a distress time for the family but in Psalms 461 it states God is our refuge and strength, A help that is readily found in times of distress. Also it is so encouraging to read Isiah 258 which states He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces. What a wonderful blessing for your and your entire family to enjoy.
Psalm23 in Hawaiian HALEL XXIII. O IHOVA kou Kahu hipa; Aole ou mea e nele ai. Nna n wau i hoomoe iho ma n ina uliuli Ua alakai o ia iau ma kapa wailana mlie. Ke hola mai nei o ia i kou uhane Ke alakai nei n o ia iau ma n ala maikai no kona inoa. Oiaio, in e hele au ma ke awwa malu o ka make, Aole au e weliweli i ka pino no ka mea, o oe p kekahi me au; O kou mana, a me kou kookoo, o kou mau mea ia e oluolu ai. Ke hoomkaukau mai nei oe i ka papa aina nau ma ke alo o kou mau enemi Ua khinu mai oe i kuu poo me ka aila; Ua piha a h kou kaha. Oiaio, e hahai mau ana iau ka pono a me ke aloha i n l a pau o kou ola ana; A ma loko o ka hale o Ihova o wau e noho mau loa aku ai. ‘O Kupuna Aloha mau loa a’u ia oe
I am so sorry to learn of your loss. May your many shared family memories bring you comfort. The scriptures remind us that Almighty God is close to those who grieve; …He saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 3418) My sincerest condolences to all of you.
So Sorry I could not Make the Services. I can remember best times as a child with AUnt Marjorie and Uncle Cecil. I miss the family reunions we had for so many years, but the main ones were called to heaven. Please know I have been and will continue to pray for you. Much Love, Wendy Anderson Hall & Family
