sorry for loss
Bridget I knew your Mom when she worked for Dr. Holloway in South Charleston and I worked for Dr. Shabb. She was so much help to me since I was not familiar with the area. We became friends and I have thought about her often. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Bridget, words cannot express the sadness I feel for the loss of your Mom. Believe me when I say that it’s one of the most difficult times in your life. There is something final about losing your mom, I still miss mine very much. Wyman and I would have liked to have been there for you and your family but we’re still cleaning up storm damage. Please know we are with you in spirit and send our love.
Bridget and Jim,
Bob found your Mother’s obituary in today’s Charleston paper. We are so sorry to read this news. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We need to get back in touch with each other–contact me. Emily
My heart and deepest sympathies to you and your family during this difficult time. I know the heartbreak and pain of losing a loved one in death so I wanted to take a moment to share an encouraging scripture that gives me much hope. 1 Corinthians 15:26 “And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing.” When we lose someone in death our heavenly Father sees the pain we feel and he promises to very soon do away with this wicked enemy of ours once and for all. And then he promises the most beautiful hope, to bring back to life all our dear loved ones and to reunite them with us again! What a beautiful promise of comfort and hope and how we long for that truly special day so close at hand.
