I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of Shirley. She was a smart, sweet and caring lady. She was an amazing mother in law to me and grandmother to my kids. I have many memories and they r my keepsake, with which I’ll never part. God has her in his keeping, and I have her in my heart. She will be sadly missed but never forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

Dear Gamble family,
Please accept my condolence and deep regrets for your loss and I'd like to share where I found comfort and hope at such a time as this when I lost my entire family to this enemy death. I found this in what I read in Jehovah Gods word the Bible at John5:28,29 for there it tells us we'll see our love ones again at the resurrection when Jesus brings them back here on earth and we're also told at Isaiah25:8 that this enemy death will be gone forever. These scriptures along with jw.org help me cope with my loss and get through each day because now I know I'll see my love ones again and so can you. I wanted to share this with you now when hope and comfort is needed hoping that this will help you also for this is my purpose in sharing this with you at this time and please know I do share your grief and would like to know if this helped you in some way so please feel free to let me know. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely, GM
