I send my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Mrs. Purser. 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!
Teresa Pittman says
Sorry for your loss. Denise was a sweet, loving lady. Your family is in my prayers.

Denise always treated me and my children as her own. I have nothing but good memories of the time we had together, fishing, taking me to Hornets games when i was younger. I, along with everyone who knew her will miss her dearly. She was a tough yet caring woman who spoke her mind and I loved her for it. We will miss you Denise. Love Brett.
