Condolence: I am so sorry for your loss. May the outpouring of sympathy, and the kind acts of friends and strangers give you comfort to help endure the days ahead. The Bible also offers comfort. “For God is near to those broken at heart. “ Ps 34:17,18. Our Creator promises that there will soon be a time when “death will be no more.” Revelation 21:4.

Condolence: Although I only knew Betty for the last two years, it was her sense of humor and quick wit that I immediately saw when I met her and the last of her I'll remember. Although her body was broken, her mind was sharp and spirited. And her love for her children and grandchildren was often spoken between us. She would especially light up when she spoke of Cecelia and Magi.... I pray that Magi is hugged especially tight in the days to come and my sympathy is extended to Betty's entire family. She was a terrific lady, and I'm privileged to have met her, laughed with her, and shared time with her and Magi.
