I didn’t know Mrs. Perkins, but I wanted to say that I’m sorry for your loss. I know how hard loss can be. When I lost some in my family there were some scriptures that comforted me more than others, and I’d like to share those with you now:
Psalms 37:10,11
Isaiah 25:8
John 5:28
John 11:25
Acts 24:15
Revelation 21:4
I and the membership of the Browns Creek Church of God would like to extend our deepest sympathy to the entire family during this time of sadness and loss. We are lifting you up in our prayers.
Dr. Larry McCallister, Pastor
Dean, Alan & Family, I am so very sorry to hear about Mrs. Perkins’ passing. I didn’t know her personally, but I knew Dean from the plant, and Alan from purchasing Salad Master. I am praying for peace for every member of your family to get through this difficult, painful time. I know the Lord will be with you through your healing.
Numbers 6:24 The LORD bless thee and keep thee…
Dear Dean, Alan & Family,
I am so very sorry. Another link in our family chain is gone, but not far, joining the others before her, we have a new shining ANGEL looking over us. Aunt Margaret was a strong, hard working, fine lady, always very good to me. May she rest now, with God’s loving arms in a much better place. Love, Ricky, Debby & Family.
Dear Dean and family, we are so sorry to hear of Margaret’s passing. We certainly will miss seeing her out in her yard tending to her flowers. May our Lord bring comfort and hope to you and your family during this difficult time.
