Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Deepest sympathy to Skip, Bryan and the family. It is never easy to say goodbye to those we love, but take comfort in the many memories you share and in knowing that death is just a doorway to heaven. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. Debra Heintz
My sincere condolences to the Tuttle family for your loss. Certainly Thomas will be missed! During this time of sorrow, comfort can be found by meditating on the wonderful promises Jehovah has in his word the Bible-2 Cor. 1;3 4! One day death will be no more-Rev 213-5! What a wonderful time that will be! Jesus helps to appreciate that we can be reunited with our dead loved ones by means of a resurrection-John 528, 29!

Love was the reason for the ransom sacrifice, showing the great love that Jehovah & Jesus had for all of mankind. (John 316) What a wonderful gift we have been giving, to have the hope of seeing our loved ones once again. Death is the age-old enemy, we all meet as our journey end. It is never pleasant, when we loss someone we love. The pain at times, is so heart breaking, that our tears, keep on flowing. (Ps. 3418) Even the perfect man, JESUS CHRIST, Gave way to tears. So greatly grieved was he over the death of his friend, Lazarous. (John 1135) Without fear the way ahead
