Condolence: My deepest sympathy to you all. May God comfort your hearts and bring you peace.

Condolence: I am deeply saddened to Mr. Lankford's passing and from the bottom of my heart I offer my sincere condolences. I know you will sorely miss such a wonderful presence in your family. By losing a loved one myself, I can say that I find great comfort in the hope for the future present in the bible: “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.””(Revelation 21:4) This scripture references future conditions on Earth, in which there will be no more suffering or death. There is also a hope found in John 5:28,29, "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice [the voice of Jesus] and come out." The resurrection that this Bible verse talks about will give us the opportunity to see our lost loved ones again. I know it will be a joyous time when you can reunite with Mr. Lankford! I invite you to visit JW.ORG for more information on this comforting hope.

Condolence: Kathy and family we are very sorry for your loss. Praying for you at this difficult time. May the Lord wrap his arms around each of you and give you comfort and peace.
