Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Dear Kutulas family, At this very difficult time please accept my condolence and deep regrets for your loss and I’d like to share where I found help at such a time as this when this enemy death took my entire family. I found much comfort and hope in what I read in Jehovah Gods word the Bible at John528,29 there it tells us we’ll see our love ones again in the resurrection when Jesus brings them back here on earth and Isaiah258 states that this enemy death will be swallowed up forever. With these scriptures and others I’m now able to cope with my loss and get through each day because now I know I’ll see my love ones again and so can you. I wanted to share this with you when hope and comfort is needed such as now in hopes that this will help you also in some way for this is my purpose in sharing this with you at this time and please know that I do share your grief and hope you’ll feel free to let me know if I accomplished my purpose. Hoping to hear from you. Sincerely, GM
I love you beautiful sweet lady.The family is in my prayers as well as friends. I was one of her caregivers and she just brightened my days with her forever in my heart. Melissa
I’m so very sorry to see this sweet lady leave us. She was always an amazing Christian lady that lived as a glowing example. I have loved her since I was just a kid growing up in Whitakers. She picked my sister and I up for church very often and made sure we were at church. She will be missed by me and many others. What a special person she has always been.
I’m so very sorry for your loss! Such a wonderful lady. Growing up in Whitakers, she was always encouraging us to go to church & oftentimes would give us a ride. She held GA meetings at her home, helping to form us into good citizens. Such a warm, loving soul! She touched so many lives in such a positive manner. Heaven has gained another precious angel!
Our heartfelt Sympathy. Mother’s Love lives forever. The loss of a Mother can never be replaced but the Love of a Mother can never be lost. We Pray to God to give you and your family the strength. Please know that we share in your grief. Our deepest Condolences. The Labsan Al, Aljo & Chat
What a sweet lady! I always enjoyed running into her at K & W and the beauty shop. She always had such a warm, welcoming smile on her face. She would tell me stories about teaching my mother in GA’s and she was interested in what everyone was doing now. She set the bar very high as an example of the kind of person we should all strive to be. She will be greatly missed, but I know she is rejoicing now!
Thinking of you and wishing you moments of peace and comfort as you remember a friend who was so close to you. Our family is keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers. Holding you close in our thoughts and hoping you are doing OK.

I want to send my deepest sympathy to the family of Nancy Verser Rosser Kutulas. The bible tells us we can gain comfort from God, even during times of sorrow. We pray to our heavenly father for help to cope with the sorrow felt from the death of a loved one. By prayer and supplication, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. Philippians 46 May you find comfort by relying on our heavenly father and learning more about the blessings of God’s kingdom. Local ministry volunteer
