Our beloved cousin you will be greatly missed. We all loved you dearly Bernice. You were a kind, thoughtful and joyous person to be around and to know. You always had a funny story to tell us about our mom or some relative we didn't know. You were an angle sent to our mother in her time of need when her own children couldn't be there. There are special places in heaven for people like you and my mother and your Aunt Lillian. I hope the two of you will rejoice in God's kingdom and pray down on those of us who still await. May you rest in peace.

It seems unfair that death should have the power to take away someone we love. When it happens the thought of never again being able to talk, laugh, comfort, or hold your loved one again can be devastating. There is hope for our loved ones who have fallen asleep in death. The Bible outlines, that hope for our comfort and encouragement. Please take time to read the scriptures below, following this comforting message: Life everlasting is promised. Man’s earthly home will endure. ‘Meek ones will thrive,’ said the psalmist. This grand future is sure. Paradise brought to perfection; All of God’s children set free. Under Jehovah’s direction, Peace on earth we will see. Soon in the grand resurrection, Sorrow will all disappear. Showering tender affection, God will dry every tear. We can live forever. It’s worth all endeavor. God's promise is faithful, his word will come true.John 5:28,29  Isaiah 25:8  Psalms 37:9-11,29  Isaiah55:11.
