    I send my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Mrs. Mendes. Although I don’t know the family personally, I’d like to offer some consolation from God’s Word, the Bible. John 5:28, 29 speaks of our loved ones being resurrected, and living in the future conditions described at Revelation 21:4, which reads: “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain by anymore. The former things have passed away.” I pray that the promise of this beautiful resurrection gives you all hope for the future and peace of mind now!

    I am in sorrow for the loss of my best friend. I wish I had known her longer and better but she gave a special meaning to my life as we grew up together.

    Margie, Mike, and Mary, you have my deepest offerings of condolence. When I think how much this still affects me, I am humbled by how more keen the pain is that you must feel.

    Guy, I only met you once, but I thought Jean had a great husband.

    All of you mattered to her and I hope it helps to know that she loved all of you so very much.
