Please allow me to offer my condolences to the, Roth family with these comforting words: The pain, the grief, and the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times, we need to go to God’s Word for comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) The Bible helps us to understand how God feel about death. You see, God promises, "your dead will live" again. (Isaiah 26:19) I am very sorry for your loss. May God's Word comfort you and your family. Sincerely, Meryl

So many words could be used to describe Barbara, but if we had to pick just two, we would have to go with "blessed soul". By definition, blessed means very welcome, pleasant, appreciated, bringing pleasure or contentment. That was her very essence. Our time with her was much too short, but she touched our hearts with memories that will live on forever.
