genuinely regret your loss. No one better than God, understands the depth of your pain and can help you cope with your disquieting thoughts. He is called the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort and he cares for you. The Bible describes a time in the future when mankind will not be subject to criminals, violence, accidents, sickness, and death. Jehovah God promised that soon, he will wipe out every tear from our eyes, ajuhhhuund death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. (Psalm 37:29; Revelation 21:4) Until that day comes, I hope that in due time you receive God’s peace that excels all thought, so that it will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.
Sincere condolences to family and friends of Dory as we all knew her. Wow 93 years - what a blessing . Mom & I will always remember lots of corn roasts at the Stever Farm with Dory & Jim and lost count of how many cobs of corn Jim could put away! They usually attended with a St Bernard "puppy" and Dory was always carrying a hankerchief around to clean up the slobber. Mom was very thankful that Dory came to visit her last summer and she has some treasured photos and memories from that visit. Mom will very much miss the monthly phone calls that Dory always managed to make before she moved from her home in Cambridge to London. She always went out of her way to stay in touch with her last surviving sister and mom will miss her dearly.
