I would like to express my condolence at this time to your family. The Bible is a great source of encouragement at times like this, a comforting thought is at Revelation 21:3,4 where it states "...And he will wipe out every year from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning not outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." This scripture gives us hope for the future! For more information please visit our website at jw.org

I will always remember your mom and dad. They were such a lovely couple. I still have some of the things that Mrs. Nobles made for the bazar at the First United Methodist Church. I am so very sorry for your loss. I will keep all of you in my prayers. I love your whole family. I remember the day that I was bathing your dad with Beatrice and he looked at me and said please pray for me. Your mom called his pastor and he came out and prayed for him. Beatrice and I prayed for him that day too. Carolyn Hebert (from the old Healthcorp) 409-755-7335
