I am so sorry to hear about Barbara. I got To know Barbara and Kenny when I worked at CVS. My son also became friends with them when he worked at Cracker Barrel And Barbara made their little boy the nicest quilt when he was born . Unfortunately we didn’t see this before the visitation or we would have come. Your family is in our prayers.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy. My heart goes out to the family. Death is something we will never get use to. In fact, God\’s Word refers to death as an enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:26) It is comforting to know that very soon our loving Heavenly Father, Jehovah, will remove death once and for all and give us the opportunity to see our loved ones again here on the earth. (John 5:28,29) May the God who \”binds up the brokenhearted\” and \”comforts all who mourn\” sustain you during this difficult time. (Isaiah 61:1, 2) Please visit our website at JW.ORG on how to cope with this \”enemy\” death.
