Tôi xin gửi lời chia buồn sâu sắc nhất đến từng quý vị. Dù chúng ta chưa từng quen biết nhau, nhưng chúng ta đều thấu hiểu nỗi đau khi những người thân yêu của mình ra đi mãi mãi.
Cha Trời của chúng ta thấu hiểu nỗi đau mà các con đang phải chịu đựng. Khi Ngài tạo dựng người nam và người nữ đầu tiên, ý định của Ngài là để họ cùng con cháu của họ, trong đó có chúng ta, được sống đời đời mà không phải chịu sự tàn phá của bệnh tật và cái chết.
Mục đích của Ngài vẫn không thay đổi, vì Ngài hứa rằng ngày ấy sẽ sớm đến, ngày mà Ngài sẽ lau khô những giọt nước mắt đau buồn trên đôi mắt chúng ta mãi mãi, và cái chết sẽ không còn nữa.
Ông ấy cũng hứa rằng những người thân yêu của bạn, những người thân yêu của tôi và nhiều người khác sẽ nghe thấy tiếng nói của ông ấy và bước ra khỏi những ngôi mộ tưởng niệm.
Bea,
Much love and support during this time of sympathy. I will always have very fond memories of the boat, picnics and card parties and just plan FAMILY fun. Especially the memories when I was young and well, lets say a very active child. brat :

Dear Bea and Jordan,
Thinking about how Brother Andy is resting now, assured that his time was well spent on this planet and that all who were fortunate enough to come into contact with him through the years are blessed with the most endearing of memories. Although we will miss Brother Andy in his physical form and we certainly will, perhaps we can take comfort in the knowledge that he is and forever will be with us spiritually. Bea, my cousin, my friend and big sister, you know more than anyone how important your union was for me, especially in the early, formative years…non wavering life support, generosity and life affirmation that will never be forgotten. I can say so much more but I know that both you and Jordan know how I feel. I am so sorry for our loss………. but oh what a blessed love and life. Love you.

Dear Bea, Jordan and Family,
My deepest sympathy in the home-going of your wonderful husband and dad.
I remember the very pleasant visit Abigail Circle had at your lovely home. Mr. King was a kind host and I appreciate his patience with us ladies.
May the LORD continue to sustain you by His grace. May He especially bless Jordan to grow into the kind of young man that will honor the memories of his Dad.
In Christ,
Azalee
Sorry for your loss – Muggins will be missed dearly.
God Bless-

“The Road of Life may take us where we do not care to go- But our dear Lord extends His hand to hold, help and guide us.” We will surley miss Muggins all our boating experiences like freezing on the boat in the winter- just to be on the boat. The “cabin” in the country were our family times together. There were many other experiences- may our memories keep Mugs alive. Keeping you in prayer. You were a constant strength, loving wife and caregiver. Muggins would always keep up with politics/news and there were some “good” conversations. I will miss his BBQ- he sure knew what to do and how long it was to cook he had a science. Love You – God Bless

He really will be missed. I would always try to catch tadpoles in the pool you guys had at the ‘cabin’ and he was always so kind. He never told me the tadpoles would not make the trip back to Seattle.
Dear Bea, Jordan and Family,
I am sorry to hear of the home going of Andrew. You have my prayers, sincere sympathy and sorrow in the loss of your loved one.
Ms Bea and Jordan, you both are in my prayers during this time. Remember that you have a church family and friends that are here for the both of you.
Love
Lisa, Maya and Mrs. Collins
