Erick and Family–I send my deep sincere condolences on the passing of your MOM. Many things in life can be replaced, but nothing ever takes the place of MOM. I miss mine very much even after 10 yrs. or so. Prayers to all of you! I am sorry that I won’t be able to attend any of the services. 10273 Mountain Run Lake Rd. Culpeper, Va. 22701
We were very sorry to learn of Rita’s untimely passing. Although we had not met her, Rita lived within walking distance of our home. We did know her wonderful daughter Heidi, however, and Heidi’s husband Dhiren. Our condolences go to them and to the rest of Rita’s family. You are in our prayers. Don and Betsy Libretta
May your sorrows rest with the knowledge in knowing that you are not alone. We are with you and our hearts will share your pain.
I give my sincere condolences to the families and friends. Rita was greatly loved and will be missed. The best description of Jehovah God is that he is love. It talks of this at 2 Corinthians 13:11 where it says, “Finally, brothers, continue to rejoice, to be readjusted, to be comforted, to think in agreement, to live peaceably, and the God of love and of peace will be with you.” This love is the reason why we can be confident that Jehovah will remember those in the memorial tombs in the near future and we will be reunited with our loved ones. Please take comfort in that knowledge.
