I am so sorry for your loss. May the fond memories of the times you shared bring you comfort and peace at this most difficult of times. We can look forward to the time mentioned at Isaiah 25:8, where it says God will wipe away our tears and swallow up death forever. My deepest sympathy to you all.

Dear Faye and family: Words cannot express the sadness I feel at the loss of your Jack. I do want to ask you to celebrate your love and life with him. We can mourn but we also have to give thanks to God for putting Jack into your life, and giving you such joy through the years. As promised, we will meet again, and until then dear big sis and family, know that you are loved by all of us and our prayers will carry you through. God bless and healing hugs. Tina and the Pat Coulter clan.

I think I am still in a bit of shock, as I guess everyone is. Thinking back to my personal connection with Uncle Jack I smile. He always looked out for me. I can’t remember a time where he wasn’t kind or encouraging. He was always standing at the side of family gatherings with an amused smile and a twinkle in his eye. I could tell Uncle Jack loved his family and extended family. I appreciated Uncle Jack and Auntie Faye taking extra effort to include me in family events when possible. He will be missed but heaven gained an Uncle Jack.

Missing you all greatly this Christmas. Spending lots of time reflecting on the wonderful times I got to spend with Uncle Jack. They didn’t come as frequently as any of us would have liked, but every single visit was a loving and enlightening experience. All my love to my beautiful and inspiring Auntie Faye, thank-you for bringing this man into all our lives.Every single one of us has been enriched in some way by his presence. To my Cousins and their families, know that I am thinking of you and all the wonderful times we have had together. I hold you all in my heart, always.♥Lesli

Hello,
My sympathies go out to the family and friends in the loss of your loved one. May the words found at Revelation 21:4 bring you comfort during this difficult time. “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.” May you find peace in the days ahead. www.jw.org
